Real talk
This fragrance generates polarized reactions. The saffron note is polarizing on its own, but the ambergris and ambroxan combination creates a warm, almost hyperreal quality that some find synthetic.Baccarat Rouge 540
The honey-rose combo is an open door. Approachable. Then the bourbon walks in and closes it behind itself. That's not a warning, that's the whole point. Warmth with a backbone.05 Candle Lit Evening
