    Real talk

    The cardamom and saffron opening is either your thing or it isn't. Most who stay with it find the drydown eventually wins them over, the frankincense and ambrette create a warmth that lingers.Kalahari
    Iris for people who find most iris too soft. The silvery ISO-E-Super spine cuts through the powdery sweetness, giving it an architectural quality that stays interesting on skin. Not loud.Iridium
