What do reviewers say about Dark Queen and Santal 33?
Some fragrances want to be liked. Dark Queen wants to be remembered. The animalic amber isn't a warning, it's what remains when the berries fade and only the wearer knows.Dark Queen
This fragrance is less a perfume and more an atmospheric event. The sandalwood is the anchor but the leather and papyrus make it interesting. Not everyone will appreciate the slightly feral quality.Santal 33
