    What do reviewers say about Boy of June and Morning Chess?

    The bergamot-patchouli pairing walks a line between romantic and something with a little more teeth. Not a room-filler. This is for someone who wants to be remembered rather than announced.Boy of June
    This one is for people who appreciate restraint. Bergamot opens clean, then galbanum and leather take over with a green-leathery coolness that patchouli deepens.Morning Chess
