    Real talk

    Some fragrances are polite. This one isn't. The patchouli in the drydown gives it an edge, earthy, a little smoky, unmistakably confident. That's the whole point.Better Than Sex
    The sweetness doesn't tiptoe. Apricot and peach arrive confident, softened only by freesia and rose. Beneath the florals, patchouli and cypress remind you this isn't trying to be anything other than.Deci Dela
