    Real talk

    Resinous fragrances can feel like homework. This one doesn't. Balsamir wears its myrrh and balsams like someone who got dressed for themselves, not for approval.Balsamir
    Malvs doesn't shout. It waits. The frankincense-smoke alliance is bold, almost austere, but the vanilla and musk in the base keep it from drifting into pure austerity.MALVS
