What do reviewers say about Gris Montaigne and Rose de Nuit?
Chypre with a philosophy degree. The rose doesn't announce itself, it thinks, then speaks. If you've been burned by overwrought florals, this is the one that wins you back.Gris Montaigne
The beeswax is either the best thing about this fragrance or the thing that sends you running. For those who stay: it's a dark, sensual rose with real weight. Not trying to be liked.Rose de Nuit
