What do reviewers say about Patchouly and Beyond Noir?
Patchouli done the way it was before it became a buzzword. Earthy, dark, a little rough at the edges, not the scrubbed-clean patchouli of trend chasers.Patchouly
This is the smoky version people kept trying to make themselves. Damien Stammers just did it properly. The birch smoke doesn't obscure the fruity sweetness, it frames it, adds shadow to the light.Beyond Noir
