    Real talk

    If you've been burned by oud that smelled like a barn, this is the one that makes you reconsider. It is a gentle, golden warmth, not a challenging animalic growl.Mamluk
    Slowdive smells like summer condensed into a bottle. The orange blossom neroli opening is gorgeous, but the real story is that beeswax tobacco heart. It is rich without being heavy, sweet without.Slowdive
