    Real talk

    Built for someone who wants haunting beauty over loudness. Powdery florals, warm spice, smoky resin, strange and wearable. It's a unique experience worth seeking out.Carnival of Souls
    Sweet enough to make an entrance, dry enough to stick around. Most fruity florals fade into background noise, Merry Mary has the patchouli backbone to actually stay with you.Merry Mary
