What do reviewers say about Hard Candy Elixir and Arabian Knight Silver?
This is sweeter than most oud fragrances dare to be, but the drydown justifies the sugar. If the original Hard Candy was a tease, the Elixir commits.Hard Candy Elixir
Here's the deal with Arabian Knight Silver: it's a blue fragrance with oriental depth, fresh and spicy up top, warm and powdery underneath. The comparison to Layton and Sauvage isn't hype.Arabian Knight Silver
