What do reviewers say about Vanquish and Ambre 114?
Vanquish operates on a different principle. It doesn't try to fill a room. It trusts that the person wearing it has already done that. Some fragrances are for being noticed.Vanquish
The sharp opening stops people in their tracks. Nutmeg and thyme, before the warmth kicks in. That's the whole play, bold, herbal, then amber takes over. This isn't another sweet amber.Ambre 114
