What do reviewers say about Targa and A City On Fire?
Targa is the scent of someone who doesn't need to fill the room. Smoke and warmth, but restrained, the kind that gets remembered, not announced. Cold incense up top.Targa
Some fragrances want to be liked. This one doesn't care either way. The cade oil opens like a lit match near gasoline, volatile, immediate, a little dangerous.A City On Fire
