What do reviewers say about Experimentum Crucis and Toy Boy?
The cumin in the opening will make people turn their heads. That's not an accident, it's the experiment. If your rose is meant to smell clean and polite, you haven't met this one.Experimentum Crucis
Here's the thing about Toy Boy: the synthetic rose is doing the heavy lifting, and it's doing it well. Not the stuffy garden variety, the modern, clean kind that sits close to skin.Toy Boy
