    What do reviewers say about Only The Brave Tattoo and John Varvatos XX?

    Diesel went for the apple-tobacco pairing that most brands play safe around. The result is sweet enough to pull people in, but the tobacco keeps it from being a flattering gesture.Only The Brave Tattoo
    That synthetic-sweet pulse isn't a flaw. It's the thing that makes this mass-appealing enough for every room, every season, every kind of occasion. The warmth wins by not arguing with anyone.John Varvatos XX
