    Real talk

    That aldehydic opening is the test. Cold, waxy, slightly soapy, it pushes people away before it can pull them in. But if you let Swann warm up, it turns into something quieter and more interesting.Swann
    It's the bitter note that makes Narcisse worth knowing. Everyone expects another sweet floral, and it is, until it isn't. The daffodil adds something unexpected.Chloé Narcisse
