What do reviewers say about The Extreme and Layton?
The sweetness here isn't polite. It's the kind that owns the room, kulfi, vanilla, amber doing overtime. If that's what you're after, you'll wear this into the ground.The Extreme
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
