What do reviewers say about Amber Intense and Alexandria II?
Some ambers shout. This one sits across the table and waits. The saffron doesn't apologize for its presence, the spice doesn't need to soften before the oud earns its keep.Amber Intense
The oud arrives late but never polite. That lavender-and-apple opening either intrigues you or makes you flinch, and the fact that it does either is exactly the point.Alexandria II
