    What do reviewers say about Bal d'Afrique and Phantasma?

    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
    Phantasma doesn't ask permission to be itself. The black tea gives it that mineral sharpness, the kind you either crave or find too cold. Yuzu on top, rice at the base.Phantasma
