    Real talk

    The banana note will make most people pause, but it works. It cuts through the dark oud and heavy spice with unexpected tropical clarity, giving Truth and Method a personality that is equal parts.Truth and Method
    Ambergris does something different here. Not the animalic some fear. Cleaner, almost delicate. It threads through like a bass note you feel more than hear.Belly of the Whale
