What do reviewers say about Grounded and Blackbird?
Some fragrances announce themselves. This one arrives and stays, something mineral and warm that settles close to the skin rather than projecting loudly across a room. The concrete note isn't cold.Grounded
Blackberry and fir are not subtle notes, they're here to announce themselves. The tart edge splits the room: some find it electrifying, others find it sharp. That charge is the whole point.Blackbird
