What do reviewers say about York Forever and Ambre Narguilé?
Honey and patchouli get dismissed as basic by people who've never smelled this. The Indonesian oil makes it richer, earthier, less forgiving than the mass-market versions.York Forever
Jean-Claude Ellena stripped away the pretension and delivered something almost dangerously easy to wear. Its cinnamon spice keeps the sweetness from feeling juvenile.Ambre Narguilé
