What do reviewers say about Eau de Caron and Bandit?
This is a discontinued chypre that smells like someone who read the room before entering it. The carnation is the tell, it's there, it's not subtle, and it either gets you or it doesn't.Eau de Caron
Bandit doesn't whisper. It states its position, leaves the room, and you're still standing in it wondering what happened. The leather-civet core is its own argument.Bandit
