What do reviewers say about Mesmer and Sacreste?
Leans unexpected. Fresh yet musty. Mineral yet resinous. Some find it too dark; others find it too real to be anything but addictive. This isn't safe.Mesmer
This is not a polite fragrance. Sacreste opens loud, burns through its heart with aggressive frankincense, and only reluctantly softens into its base.Sacreste
