What do reviewers say about Upside Down and Herod?
Gourmand fragrances usually play it safe. Upside Down doesn't. The rum and vanilla are bold, almost confrontational, but the tobacco and cinnamon keep it from becoming a sugar bomb.Upside Down
Some fragrances suggest. Herod insists. The tobacco-vanilla base isn't subtle, it's the whole argument, and it wins. Sweet enough to pull people in, structured enough to keep them at a distance.Herod
