    Real talk

    This is vanilla that doesn't apologize for being vanilla. No medicinal edge, no soapiness, no hesitation. The lavender keeps it honest, the beeswax keeps it warm.Strings of Light in the Forest
    Grand Soir is the fragrance equivalent of a leather club chair in a darkened room. It smells expensive, it lasts, and it announces presence without screaming. The key is restraint in application.Grand Soir
