What do reviewers say about Santal Calling and Crystal Noir?
Nutmeg opening aside, this is really about that creamy sandalwood drydown that earns the name. This is a quiet confidence fragrance rather than a statement-making one.Santal Calling
Crystal Noir is not subtle and it knows it. The pepper and ginger opening is unapologetically assertive, but the coconut gardenia heart is where it wins people over.Crystal Noir
