    What do reviewers say about Milk and Bois Doré?

    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
    Sweet-woody with an edge. For someone who wants vanilla without the obvious, almond without the pastry. The mineral and pepper give it a pulse beneath the warmth. A quiet luxury, not a statement.Bois Doré
