What do reviewers say about Manhattan and Herod?
The opening is spicy and a little strange, some people think it's too much. That's the point. Push past the first hour and what you get is a drydown that smells like nothing else: warm, tea-forward.Manhattan
Some fragrances suggest. Herod insists. The tobacco-vanilla base isn't subtle, it's the whole argument, and it wins. Sweet enough to pull people in, structured enough to keep them at a distance.Herod
