Real talk
This is not a safe bet. The celery seed adds a savory green quality that might feel unexpected in a citrus-vetiver context. But that's the point. The unconventional note brings something genuine to.Vetiver
Oud without the intimidating punch. This takes that precious, sometimes brutal note and polishes it into something you'll actually want to smell on yourself. That's the move here, and it pays off.Oud Wood
