What do reviewers say about Rock the Myrrh and Pardon?
The real tension isn't the notes. It's whether you want to smell like something this dark. Rock the Myrrh carries warm myrrh, close suede, the ember that stays long after you've put it on.Rock the Myrrh
This is sweeter than you might expect from the name. The magnolia and tonka give it a softness that plays against the oud base. If you want pure darkness, look elsewhere.Pardon
