    Real talk

    Nefs is not subtle. This is a fragrance that wants to be noticed, projecting aggressively in the opening before settling into a warm, resinous drydown that lasts well into the next day.Nefs
    This isn't a safe blind buy. The saffron opening has a slight edge, it can read sharp on some skin. But if you want something that smells like it cost more than it did.Sparkling Opal
