    What do reviewers say about Mayfair and Cuir?

    This one doesn't whisper. The animalic notes, civet, beeswax, leather, give it a presence that demands nothing from you except commitment. Some will find it too much.Mayfair
    The saffron opening splits people, medicinal to some, the start of something complex to others. Either way, give it 30 minutes. The leather takes over, and it's worth the wait.Cuir
