Draws on Puerto Rican and Philadelphia urban/lifestyle references, often building complex unisex compositions with edible-fruity facets (e.g. lemon, cherry, grape, pineapple, mango), green/floral garden notes, salty nuances, and darker touches of tobacco, cannabis, woods and resins.[1][2][3]

About
