What do reviewers say about Oud Luban and Lavs?
Oud can overwhelm. That's the point. This one doesn't go easy on the darkness, but it also doesn't need you to meet it halfway. The blood orange cuts clean.Oud Luban
Lavs is not interested in being liked. It opens confrontational and stays spiritual. If you want something polite, look elsewhere. This is incense-draped drama for those who understand that fragrance.Lavs
