What do reviewers say about Hearth and A City On Fire?
Dense. Resinous. The kind of fragrance that doesn't negotiate. You'll either want to live in it or open a window. But here's the thing: "designed to work with your skin chemistry" isn't a warning.Hearth
Some fragrances want to be liked. This one doesn't care either way. The cade oil opens like a lit match near gasoline, volatile, immediate, a little dangerous.A City On Fire
