    Real talk

    Not mass-appealing or office-safe. Varanasi demands commitment from the wearer and tolerance from those nearby. The animalic and leather components sit close to the skin but never fully retreat.Varanasi
    Varuek is not trying to make friends. It opens like a struck match in a leather workshop, then settles into something older and more personal. The animalic notes are not subtle.Varuek (วฤค)
