What do reviewers say about Wildblue Noir and Herod?
The aquatic-leather combo sounds like a genre mistake. It isn't. The coffee bean keeps the chocolate from getting sweet, the vetiver keeps the suede from getting soft.Wildblue Noir
Some fragrances suggest. Herod insists. The tobacco-vanilla base isn't subtle, it's the whole argument, and it wins. Sweet enough to pull people in, structured enough to keep them at a distance.Herod
