    What do reviewers say about Boy and Fetish?

    Not usually a vanilla person? This might be the one that changes your mind. Sweet-crisp freshness meets warm amber drydown, the mint and citrus up front keep it from getting heavy.Boy
    A 90s floral that refuses to be safe. The citrus opens sharp, the florals arrive insistent, and the powdery drydown lingers like a memory. This is the scent for someone who walked into a decade with.Fetish
