What do reviewers say about Alchermes and Nio?
The davana-saffron opener either grips you or confuses you. But in 30 minutes, it becomes leather, and the gamble pays off. Rich, warm, close, not for those who want to smell invisible.Alchermes
Nio does something counterintuitive for a citrus fragrance: it gets more interesting as the hours pass. Its true character emerges in the soft jasmine and smoky woods.Nio
