    This is powdery in the best possible way, soft, close, intimate. It doesn't compete for the room. Some will want it to throw harder. But Respiro earns that restraint.Respiro
    Bois d'Argent is restrained by design. The frankincense opening reads cool, almost clinical, before the myrrh and iris heart softens the picture. If you want a quiet statement, this delivers.Bois d'Argent
