    Real talk

    The aldehydic lift is a 70s signature, not everyone wants that sparkle. But for those who crave green florals with real backbone, it is exactly the provocation worth wearing.Shocking You
    Quartz presents its character directly. There's something mineral and clear about it that sets it apart from many fragrances. The citrus opening is quick and bright.Quartz
