    What do reviewers say about Reliqvia and Martyr?

    This is not a safe blind buy. Reliqvia demands attention and space. If smoke and frankincense sound overwhelming, walk away. But if you crave liturgical intensity, this Milanese creation delivers.Reliqvia
    Martyr is not trying to make friends. If the metallic pepper opening does not immediately interest you, the smoky leather heart will not convert you. This is for those who want fragrance to challenge.Martyr
