    Here's the thing about anise: it's not sweet. It's cool, a little bit clinical, and completely unafraid of itself. Most fragrances use it as a garnish.Cuir Impertinent
    Star anise is not a shy note. It opens this fragrance like a statement, and if black pepper follows, you know this is not playing it safe. Overall effect is warm and atmospheric.L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme EDT
