What do reviewers say about Counterattack and Layton?
Bold has become a dirty word in modern fragrance. Too loud, too much, too something. Counterattack disagrees. Classic masculine sensibility with nothing wasted, every note earns its place.Counterattack
The sweetness here isn't the problem, it's the solution. Vanilla could easily turn Layton into something one-dimensional, but the cardamom keeps it aromatic and interesting.Layton
