Real talk
Alpha does something that separates it from the usual citrus-fresh pack, the aldehydes. They lift the orange, make the aquatic notes feel less like a shower and more like effervescence.Alpha
This is the fragrance that made ambroxan famous. Not a soft skin-scent, it projects, it lasts, it fills space without being loud. If you want something that whispers, look elsewhere.Sauvage
