What do reviewers say about Connoisseur Man and Y Le Parfum?
This is the scent of someone who doesn't need the room to know they're there. The citrus-herbal opening is clean in the best sense, but the frankincense and tonka bean in the drydown push it.Connoisseur Man
Y Le Parfum is not trying to reinvent Y. It is simply louder, with sharper aldehydes and more insistent ginger in the opening, then a heart that feels herbal and grounded.Y Le Parfum
