    What do reviewers say about Douleur!2 and Promise?

    This is the one that stays on your shirt for a year. The camphor-mint opening hits like medicine, bracing, astringent, cold at first. The oyster and civet drydown is where it all comes together.Douleur!2
    Promise is not a shy fragrance. The clove-spiced rose and smoky cypriol drydown make it bold, but the apple opening keeps it grounded. It rewards patience, revealing its depths slowly over hours.Promise
