    Real talk

    This fragrance doesn't pretend. Costus and castoreum make it a deliberate choice, warm, animalic, unapologetically physical. Not a scent to impress strangers. A scent to inhabit fully.Ambilux
    The civet note is not subtle. It announces itself, it lingers, and it polarizes. If you're looking for a fragrance that whispers, stop here. If you want something that owns the room, animalic warmth,.Civet
