What do reviewers say about Proxima and Interlude Man?
This is the fragrance for someone who's watched first-contact films and thought: yes, but what would it smell like? The aldehydic lift keeps everything feeling airy and otherworldly.Proxima
It does not try to please everyone, and that is precisely why it works. The spice-and-resin architecture is bold but never bloated. A statement piece that rewards patience.Interlude Man
