FAQ
What makes a fragrance “niche”?
Creative research, selected raw materials, careful distribution and a clear olfactory identity.
Can I use them every day?
Yes: choose transparent profiles for the office and reserve the most intense trails for the evenings or for targeted doses.
How do I know if a trail is “too much” for me?
Try samples at home and check their longevity after 2–4 hours. If you want to lighten things up, opt for airy EDP versions or woody/musky builds.
