What do reviewers say about Poison and Patchouli of Rwanda?
Sweet enough to draw people in, complex enough to split opinion. That's not a flaw, that's the point. Poison wears like a dare, and the wearer who chooses it knows exactly what they're carrying.Poison
Patchouli has a reputation for being heavy. This one isn't. It opens with a woody-citrus brightness that feels more morning market than back shelf. The spice stays cool and the patchouli reads earth.Patchouli of Rwanda
