Real talk
Cycle is that rare fresh fragrance that doesn't abandon you by midday. The blackcurrant-mint opening is confident, not aggressive, cool fruit that opens eyes rather than rooms.Cycle
Vetiver is one of perfumery's most misunderstood notes. Too often it plays a supporting role, the earthiness that grounds a floral or a tobacco blend. Vetiver puts the material front and center.Vetiver
