    Real talk

    Gardenia doesn't belong in men's fragrance. That's exactly why it works here, a floral heart wrapped in green and wood, masculine in structure, unconventional in execution.331 Homme
    This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
