    Real talk

    Some fragrances ask you to meet them halfway. This one just hands you the whole bush and says, breathe this. It's lilac without apology, indolic, abundant, a little unhinged in the best way.Lilac No.4
    This is not a crowd-pleaser. The Lilac heart skews vintage, almost nostalgic, while the Cognac opening reads more bourbon than bergamot. Worth sampling before committing, especially if you want.Tears
