    Real talk

    The sweetness here isn't the problem, it's the solution. Vanilla could easily turn Layton into something one-dimensional, but the cardamom keeps it aromatic and interesting.Layton
    Genual hits with a clean jasmine-citrus burst before almond milk and amber take over. Cedarwood in the base keeps it from going too sweet. It’s a cozy, resinous embrace.Genual
