    Real talk

    The rooibos tea makes this interesting. Not just another sweet tropical, herbal but not medicinal, bright but grounded. Spices bring the heat, benzoin brings the close. Energetic without aggression.Eau de Lacoste L.12.12 Rouge Energetic
    Some fragrances want to own the room. This one is for the person who walks in and doesn't need anyone to look up. Moderate projection, intimate sillage.Hugo
