    Real talk

    The aldehydes are the deciding factor. They lift this into something with a past, that clean, almost soapy edge above the tonka and wheat. Without them, it's just comforting.Tonkamande
    BLV isn't a fragrance that announces itself. The ginger opens clean, almost soapy, then the wisteria and flax pull it into something powdery and soft. By the drydown, it's skin-warm.BLV
