    Named Sweet Temptation, and it earns both words. The temptation is obvious, vanilla, amber, warmth. The catch? That warmth comes with oud underneath. The kind of sweetness that has something to say.Sweet Temptation
    The animalic core isn't hidden, it's the point. If you've been curious about castoreum and civet, this is the Extrait that lets you find out what they're for.Dark Desire
