What do reviewers say about Obsession and Night?
Obsession doesn't invite you in, it consumes. That vanilla-civet combination is either the whole point or a dealbreaker, and the above-average longevity means whatever you decide.Obsession
This is not a safe fragrance. The aldehydes open like a door that's been closed too long, and the civet in the base isn't hiding. But that's exactly the point.Night
