    Real talk

    Some fragrances ask you to like them. Bruise Violet doesn't. The powdery lipstick accord hits you first, waxy, vintage, and absolutely unapologetic. It's the reason this fragrance has passionate fans.Bruise Violet
    Iris is a note that divides. You'll either crave this powdery depth or find it too close to vintage facepowder. That's the draw. It asks something of you, and rewards those who lean in.Angel's Dust
