    Real talk

    Here's the thing about Alibi: it doesn't try to fill the room. The sweetness is warm and inviting, vanilla and praline doing the heavy lifting, but it stays close. Intimate. That's the point.Alibi Eau de Parfum
    If you want a safe scent, look elsewhere. Black Opium announces itself with bold Orange Blossom, cools into Coffee and Jasmine intimacy, and stays close with Vanilla and Patchouli.Black Opium
