What do reviewers say about Sahraa and Epic Man?
The rose-oud combination in Sahraa sidesteps excessive sweetness. The saffron and black pepper create an immediate spiciness that prevents the florals from becoming precious.Sahraa
Epic Man is not subtle. This is a fragrance that announces itself, and the frankincense upfront is unmissable. If you want something for the boardroom, look elsewhere.Epic Man
