    Real talk

    White florals get a bad name from the ones that strangle a room. Carissa opens like the hour before you're supposed to arrive, green, exact, a little cool. Then the softness earns itself.Carissa
    This is not the amber of amber-filled cookies or syrups. It is raw, resinous, and aggressively warm, with herbal and savory notes that emerge depending on your skin chemistry.Ambre Sultan
