Real talk
UERMI made fig behave. Not the jammy fig of summer candles, not the coconut-lotion fig of the mass market. This one opens green, almost leafy, and dries down powder-soft against skin.UR ± Silk
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
