Real talk
Fire is not a safe blind buy. It projects boldly and announces itself without apology. The tobacco-spice axis dominates, and the sweetness in the drydown saves it from being harsh.Fire
If you want a safe scent, look elsewhere. Black Opium announces itself with bold Orange Blossom, cools into Coffee and Jasmine intimacy, and stays close with Vanilla and Patchouli.Black Opium
