What do reviewers say about Acadia and Squid?
Acadia doesn't try to be a beach vacation. It's the fog rolling in. The rocky shore before anyone else wakes up. Balsam fir and sea salt together sounds like a contradiction until you smell it.Acadia
It is not for those who want a polite office scent. For the adventurous, its strange, inky heart offers a uniquely compelling beauty that is hard to forget.Squid
