    Real talk

    The vanilla-amber base is doing the heavy lifting here. Fruity florals can skew one-note, but this one has depth underneath all that sweetness, the patchouli keeps it from sliding into pure sugar.Victoria's Secret Simply Gorgeous
    Licorice in a fruity-floral sounds wrong until it's not. That's the contrarian streak Showtime wears like a grin, the note that makes people stop and ask what they're smelling.Showtime EDT
