What do reviewers say about Bois d'Argent and Sideris?
Bois d'Argent is restrained by design. The frankincense opening reads cool, almost clinical, before the myrrh and iris heart softens the picture. If you want a quiet statement, this delivers.Bois d'Argent
The beeswax is the whole point. Not the polished kind in a fancy candle, real beeswax, golden and close to the hive. Paired with mountain tea and Turkish rose.Sideris
