    What do reviewers say about Civet de Nuit and Bee?

    This is the fragrance for someone who's done with the safe choice. The aldehydic opening flatters, then the civet arrives and you either lean in or step back. That tension is the whole point.Civet de Nuit
    Bee is not a polite fragrance. The beeswax opens like a candle you've just blown out, and the ginger adds real kick. It became Zoologist's breakout because it smells like something alive and working.Bee
