    Real talk

    Incense-forward fragrances ask something of you. Purgatorio delivers, aggressively honest smoke that doesn't apologize for taking up room. The aldehydes keep it from feeling heavy.Purgatorio
    Ambergris does something different here. Not the animalic some fear. Cleaner, almost delicate. It threads through like a bass note you feel more than hear.Belly of the Whale
