    Real talk

    Maria's caramel arrives before you've adjusted. Then white florals soften the entrance, and a warm woody base (guaiac, sandalwood, myrrh) settles it into something intimate rather than loud.Maria
    This one leans architectural, not sweet. Cherry wine gives it initial body but cinnamon prevents any dessert-like drift. The frankincense and smoke carry the load after the first hour.With the Candlestick
