What do reviewers say about African Rooibos and Coffee Cat?
You know that quiet moment at the end of the day when everything settles? That's rooibos and cedarwood, the exhale, not the entrance. It prefers a quiet room to a crowd.African Rooibos
Catnip over coffee. Tobacco over civet. This fragrance walks in sideways, and that's exactly the point. If you're expecting a literal coffee scent, look elsewhere.Coffee Cat
