    Real talk

    The opening is more herbal than expected for a fragrance with oud in the base, and that contrast is exactly what makes Vintage Radio work. Plum eases the sage into the oud.Vintage Radio
    If you want safe, look elsewhere. Paragon hits hard from the first spray and never apologizes for it. That said, the drydown on skin is genuinely beautiful.Paragon
