What do reviewers say about New York Forever and Oajan?
Sweetness done right. The honey and vanilla could read as heavy, but the Indonesian patchouli keeps everything grounded, earthy, a little dark, surprisingly sophisticated. That's the move here.New York Forever
Oajan doesn't whisper. The cinnamon hits hard and the honey never lets go, but the osmanthus and artemisia keep it from becoming a sugar bomb. Not subtle, but never crude either.Oajan
