    Real talk

    This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
    This is spice without a lecture. Cashmere wood does the heavy lifting, keeping the pepper and anise warm instead of aggressive. Powdery florals add softness.Spicy
