Real talk
Clove is the divider. Some wrinkle their nose at the sharp opening, others lean in and stay there. But give it twenty minutes, the smoke lifts, the coffee warms.Dear John
Alien is not subtle. Jasmine leads without apology, cashmeran provides the comfort, amber the afterthought that keeps people asking what you're wearing. It divides opinion for good reason.Alien
