    Real talk

    The name is a threat. The scent is a conversation. If you picked this up expecting something dark and brooding, the raspberry-tea heart might catch you off guard. That's not a flaw.As Deadly As A Gun
    This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
