    What do reviewers say about Strictly Private and The One for Men?

    The vanilla here doesn't coddle. It's vetiver's dry backbone keeping everything honest. If you want sweet, go elsewhere. If you want a fragrance that smells like a man who knows exactly who he is.Strictly Private
    This is a solid daily driver for men who want Italian elegance without being shouty. The parfum concentration means it lasts, the woody drydown means it finishes well, and the citrus herb opening.The One for Men
