What do reviewers say about Black Saffron and Eau Rihla?
This is saffron done with real intent. The opening is deliberately abrasive, almost challenging, which is Byredo's way. The leather heart saves it, and the vetiver drydown is where it actually.Black Saffron
Eau Rihla is Diptyque doing what it does best: taking a poetic concept and executing it with restraint. The leather-iris heart is the real story here, warm without being heavy, elegant without being.Eau Rihla
