    Real talk

    It's named Cacophony, but what you'll remember is how it resolves. Citrus that argues, then vanilla that forgives. White chocolate in the base isn't a gimmick, it keeps the sweetness honest.Cacophony
    The cumin in the heart is a fork in the road. Some people hit it and turn back. Others find it the best part, a warmth that doesn't announce itself but gets under your skin.Munegu
