    Real talk

    This one divides. Some find the praline sweetness too much; others spray it every morning like their alarm. That citrus opening doesn't play it safe, it's the bridge to something richer.Black XS
    The name sounds like something you'd find on a periodic table. The scent smells like something you'd find on skin you weren't ready to let go of. That's not a contradiction. That's the whole point.Thallium Black
