    Real talk

    This one polarizes on the pineapple. Sweet, almost confectionery, right at the front, and that's either the hook or the dealbreaker. If you want a fragrance that announces itself unapologetically.Pure Instinct
    Some fragrances shout. This one doesn't need to. The yuzu keeps it bright for the first hour, then the papyrus and moss take over, and that's the move.Bois de Yuzu
