What do reviewers say about Istanbul's Soul and Tero?
Bold smoky orientals aren't for shrinking violets, and this one knows it. Built for people who want a fragrance that announces a point of view, not every fragrance needs to be polite.Istanbul's Soul
This is salted caramel that grew up. The Sichuan pepper and earthy vetiver keep it from going full confection, there's a bite underneath the sweetness that refuses to behave.Tero
