What do reviewers say about Patchouli and Overture Man?
Most patchouli fragrances soften the note or hide behind it. This one puts it front and center. Bergamot opens clean, then the dark, oudy patchouli arrives with its tarry heart intact.Patchouli
Overture Man does not whisper. It announces itself with cumin and cognac, demands attention with incense and leather. This is for those who want to be noticed, not for those seeking subtlety.Overture Man
