What do reviewers say about Mena and Nouf?
Sandalwood appearing in both the heart and base is a risk, it either reads as masterful layering or needless repetition. The second interpretation misses the point.Mena
Give Nouf time and the citrus settles into something cleaner and steadier. The bright opening yields to a more grounded heart where amber and black pepper take over.Nouf
