What do reviewers say about Patchouli Noir and Gris Dior?
The sweet-fruity opening fools you into thinking this is delicate. It isn't. The patchouli arrives quiet, then stays. This is the fragrance for people who've learned that dark and sweet aren't.Patchouli Noir
Gris Dior does not announce itself. It does not need to. The absence of an opening and the dominance of oakmoss make this a fragrance for someone who already knows what they want.Gris Dior
