Real talk
This one skips the usual performance. No top notes means what you smell right away is what you're getting. It won't surprise you with twists and turns.Mix 13
Black Orchid isn't a fragrance, it's a confrontation. The truffle opening is strange, almost jarring. Then the florals arrive, heavy and rich. The kind of scent people have strong opinions about.Black Orchid
