    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
    Ambergris is the flex. Take it away and this is a pleasant smoky floral. Leave it in and you've got something people will ask about, that slightly feral.Smoked Ambergris
