    Real talk

    Cordial keeps things refined, calvados and cognac warmth present but threaded with cashmere musk and sandalwood beneath. The spirit-forward composition offers rich.Cordial
    A fragrance that smells like a mahogany office at 2am, warm brandy, candied apple, quiet confidence. Sweet enough to pull you in. Refined enough to stay. The drydown is what people come back for.Langston
