    What do reviewers say about Open Road and Gentlemen Only?

    This EDT leans light and effusive. The Sichuan pepper tingle fades fast, but the lemon and red apple keep things lively for a few hours. Vetiver and patchouli create a grounded finish.Open Road
    It's polished enough for the office. But underneath there's a smoky, woody heat that doesn't play by the rules. For men who want a scent with nerve, not just good manners.Gentlemen Only
