    Real talk

    Iris and plum is an old perfumery tension, but here the plum goes candied, not fresh. The iris keeps it cool while the tobacco keeps it warm. That's the move.Plum de Velours
    It's not subtle. That should be clear from the first three seconds. Frankincense smoke and cardamom, spicy and sweet at once, the kind of combination that either pulls you in or makes you step back.Ambre Samar
