    Sweet enough to draw attention, earthy enough to feel grounded. The patchouli keeps the vanilla from becoming simple, it adds weight to every note of caramel into something you'd actually wear.Artemus Saffron
    If you want people to know you are wearing perfume, Xplicit Vanilla will make that happen. The vanilla is unapologetic, the oud adds gravitas, and the drydown wraps everything in warmth.Xplicit Vanilla
