    Real talk

    Not a statement fragrance. Horizon is the one you reach for when you don't need anyone to know you're wearing anything at all. Moderate projection, intimate warmth in the drydown.Horizon
    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
