    What do reviewers say about Shanghai 1930 and Musa Paradisiaca?

    Green tea and tuberose either pulls you in or doesn't, there's no negotiating with this composition. The interplay between crisp tea and lush florals creates something that refuses to be polite.Shanghai 1930
    Most tuberose compositions go soft. This one leans green, almost vegetable at the opening, then keeps surprising as the animalic base arrives, ambergris and civet don't ask permission.Musa Paradisiaca
