    What do reviewers say about Candide and Anubis?

    Jasmine doesn't whisper in this one. It arrives confident and stays that way, so if you've been burned by indolic florals, know this: the sweetness here is bright, not skanky.Candide
    Not a quiet fragrance. Anubis walks into a room before you've reached for the door, suede, smoke, and a presence that lingers for hours. Strong sillage, strong opinions.Anubis
