    Real talk

    Oud can be a wall. Dense, demanding, unrelenting. This one adds a door. The citrus up front keeps it from being heavy before you even get to the warm woods and vanilla.HC5 Madera Oud
    Violet makes it softer, amber makes it warmer, vetiver makes it real. This is what happens when sandalwood stops being a trend and starts. The combination of powdery violet, warm amber.HC6 Sándalo
