What do reviewers say about Bois and Milk?
Not the cedar you already know, the cedar after it's stopped trying so hard. Creamy sandalwood, powder florals, vanilla warmth. Sillage stays close. That's not a flaw.Bois
Milk is not trying to be interesting. It succeeds at being soothing. The sesame opening is quietly nutty, the marshmallow heart is soft without being childish, and the tonka-benzoin drydown keeps.Milk
