What do reviewers say about Memoir Man and Cuir Vert?
Memoir Man opens like a dare. That absinthe, sharp, bitter, not for everyone. But the people who get it? They wear nothing else. The wormwood isn't a quirk. It's the whole point.Memoir Man
Here's the thing about Cuir Vert: the guava in the opening will either fascinate you or make you question everything. It reads almost animalic on some skin.Cuir Vert
