    What do reviewers say about Lustre and Ebano?

    Lustre is a sophisticated, resin-forward fragrance that rewards patience. The cardamom-iris opening is brief but memorable, and the drydown is where this scent truly lives.Lustre
    Sweet-smoky is easy to get wrong, too much of either and it falls apart. Ebano doesn't. The cocoa and incense don't compete; they negotiate. Result: a fragrance that smells like a decision.Ebano
