What do reviewers say about Private Eye and Santal 33?
Private Eye isn't interested in announcing itself. It'll sit two inches off your skin while everyone else floods the room. The leather keeps it grounded; the violet keeps it wearable.Private Eye
This fragrance is less a perfume and more an atmospheric event. The sandalwood is the anchor but the leather and papyrus make it interesting. Not everyone will appreciate the slightly feral quality.Santal 33
