What do reviewers say about The God Father and Fan Your Flames?
Built for the man who doesn't explain himself. The whiskey note is what draws people in, warm, boozy, sophisticated, but the musky drydown is what keeps the fragrance memorable long after the first.The God Father
It is not a safe blind buy. The coconut-rum opening is unapologetically sweet, and the drydown swings earthy and green from the Chinese toon. Its warmth truly shines.Fan Your Flames
