Real talk
The name is literal. This smells like ink on paper in a cold room. Cypress up front is greener than expected, and vetiver stays close to the skin for hours. Cashmere wood is subtle in the base.Encre Noire
This one smells like you spent three days walking, not that you just showered. The green is earthy, not fresh-cut lawn green. It's the forest choosing you, not the other way around.Bête Humaine
