    Real talk

    Africanimal is a straight honey fragrance that does not play coy. Woody notes and black pepper keep the sweetness from becoming cloying, and bergamot adds a brief citrus lift.MAC Creations Hue: Africanimal
    This one is not subtle and never tries to be. The coffee and liqueur give it swagger, the leather and civet give it depth, and the honey and patchouli give it staying power.Raw Gold
