What do reviewers say about Incense & Cuir and Baccarat Rouge 540?
Some compositions play it safe with leather. This one doesn't. The frankincense leans resinous, almost smoky, and the saffron doesn't apologize for its medicinal edge.Incense & Cuir
This fragrance generates polarized reactions. The saffron note is polarizing on its own, but the ambergris and ambroxan combination creates a warm, almost hyperreal quality that some find synthetic.Baccarat Rouge 540
