What do reviewers say about Bendelirious and Sideshow?
Most cherry fragrances play it safe. Bendelirious doesn't, it starts celebratory, almost frivolous, then leather and vetiver arrive like a whispered secret.Bendelirious
This fragrance goes somewhere most sweet scents refuse to. The hyraceum gives it a musty, animalic undertone that honest-to-god smells like skin, real skin, not perfumery skin.Sideshow
