    Real talk

    The kind of scent you wear for yourself first. Moderate sillage means it stays close, a quiet companion through long winter evenings rather than a room-announcing entrance.Alkemi
    Oriental but not heavy. That's where people get confused. Alahine is powdery, restrained, warm in the way iris and vanilla are warm, not in your face.Alahine
