Real talk
It's sweet without apology. Some will want more edge; others will find exactly what they're looking for, a coconut-rum warmth that smells like a place, not a perfumer's concept.Caribbean Waters
Most citrus fragrances play it safe. Gorse leans into something stranger, the actual botanical, furze, not just 'green notes.' Coconut, but not in a tropical-drink way. More the memory of it.Gorse
