What do reviewers say about Dark and Cacao Pimento?
This isn't a dessert you wear. It's cocoa as it exists before sugar gets involved, bitter, dusty, almost ashy. The opening has a medicinal edge that some will love and others will resist.Dark
Cacao Pimento leans masculine without apologizing for it. The tobacco and rum give it a certain gravity, but the white cacao keeps it from becoming a caricature.Cacao Pimento
