What do reviewers say about Balmain Homme and The Secret Night?
The leather speaks with quiet confidence. Violet leaf keeps it cool beneath the warmth of saffron and tonka, sweet enough to notice, never enough to announce.Balmain Homme
This fragrance asks you to trust the contradiction, citrus and marine on top, suede and tonka underneath. Some find that tension brilliant. Others won't get past the first hour.The Secret Night
