What do reviewers say about 1872 For Men and Encre Noire?
Geza Schön does not do simple. Even in a fragrance named for a royal warrant, there is intellectual rigor here. The citrus opening is not cheerful, it is precise.1872 For Men
This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
