What do reviewers say about Bamboo Harmony and Bal d'Afrique?
This is the fragrance for someone who doesn't need to fill the room with their presence. The white tea note is unusual, clean, slightly bitter, meditative rather than memorable.Bamboo Harmony
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
