Real talk
French lavender has a reputation for being a bit much. This one softens the blow with Brazilian tonka, almond-like sweetness that rounds the edges without turning the whole thing into dessert.Tonka Lavande
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
