    Real talk

    This fragrance doesn't whisper. The grapefruit opening is assertive, almost confrontational in its freshness. If you like your citrus to bite, this is your scent.Perseus
    This isn't the kind of fresh that smells like everyone else. Grapefruit and Sichuan pepper open sharp, then hemp and vetiver take over, green, grounded, quietly confident.Engel Pure
