What do reviewers say about Scarlet Sands and Anelo?
Scarlet Sands does not smell like sand. It smells like the sky above sand. If you want literal desert imagery, look elsewhere. This is about light, heat relenting, and the hour when everything.Scarlet Sands
Anelo does not play it safe. The pineapple and ginger combination gives it an unusual tropical spice that shifts throughout the day. It's a unique, acquired taste.Anelo
