Lawang

Opened the box and the very first spritz felt like a small work of art—this is a standard size bottle, but the composition is anything but ordinary. It's the kind of scent that makes you pause and think, and I've already gotten a compliment from a stranger.

I was nervous buying a fragrance I couldn't smell first, but this one settled into something warm and woody within about twenty minutes and I've worn it almost daily since. The standard bottle size is generous for the price, and one spray on the wrist lasts me through a whole workday.

I was honestly expecting it to be a bit much for daily wear, but the scent settles into something warm and surprisingly easy to be around. The standard bottle size feels generous for how concentrated it is, one spray lasts me through a whole workday.
