    Real talk

    The kind of woody-chypre that people either lean into or step back from. The celery-anise gives it an edge most florals won't touch, making it interesting, making it last, making it yours.Tete-a-Tete
    Sweet enough to draw people in, complex enough to split opinion. That's not a flaw, that's the point. Poison wears like a dare, and the wearer who chooses it knows exactly what they're carrying.Poison
