This is one of the more interesting budget-orientals available. The almond-cinnamon opening has more character than you might expect from the brand. The drydown with cocoa and oud is where it earns.Byzantium
Isa exists in that rare space between vintage and timeless. It's warm, powdery, and floral enough to feel familiar, but the galbanum and nutmeg keep it from being predictable.Isa
