    Real talk

    Balahe doesn't ask permission. One spray and you're in for the evening, the aldehydes announce themselves, the florals deepen, and by the time the vanilla arrives you're committed.Balahe
    Some plum fragrances play it safe. This one leans into the tuberose and doesn't flinch, creamy, almost animalic, with enough fruit to keep it grounded.Plum
