    Real talk

    It earns every fan it gets. Flower Boy doesn't introduce itself at the door, it shows up in the corner, lets you come to it. The rose is there, but it's not polite. The tar keeps it honest.Flower Boy
    This is not a safe blind buy. Purpose 50 announces itself with medicinal smoke that some will find polarizing. It settles into a rich, smoky amber skin scent.Purpose 50
