    Real talk

    This is powdery iris done without apology, the kind that splits the room between people who get it and people who don't. The almond-vanilla of heliotrope threads through the florals.Yohji Yamamoto Femme
    If you want the Moroccan desert in a bottle, this is it. Tobacco, honey, and incense create something rugged yet sweet. Not for those who prefer clean, aquatic fragrances.Chergui
