    Real talk

    Be honest: this is weird. Petrichor, blood, and smoke might sound like a horror movie pitch, but somehow it works. This is not a safe blind buy. It stands in a league of its own.Vampire Husband
    Aquatic but not fresh. Mineral smoke, green juniper, and an iris drydown that stays close to the skin. This is something that asks something of you, an atmospheric composition that feels more like.Pluie Noire
