What do reviewers say about Italian Forest and Oud Wood?
A linear fragrance that wears its heart on its sleeve. Some call it old-school; others call it honest. Either way, the cypress doesn't quit, it stays, and so will you.Italian Forest
Oud without the intimidating punch. This takes that precious, sometimes brutal note and polishes it into something you'll actually want to smell on yourself. That's the move here, and it pays off.Oud Wood
