    What do reviewers say about Havana and Eroica?

    Old-school masculine that still knows how to make an entrance. The tobacco doesn't whisper, it occupies the room. If you're after something that asks nothing of you except confidence, this delivers.Havana
    The aldehydic opening will stop you in your tracks, it's soapy, almost sharp, that classic 1970s declaration. Either it pulls you back to something you forgot you loved, or it doesn't.Eroica
