    What do reviewers say about Humboldt and Reflection Man?

    A tropical that refuses to play by the rules. No suntan-lotion sugar, no pedestrian fruit basket. The passion fruit opens amert and strange, then tangerine pulls it somewhere warmer.Humboldt
    Reflection Man is not trying to shout over anyone in the room. It is a quiet confidence wrapped in aromatic herbs, soft florals, and creamy woods. The pepper note keeps things interesting without.Reflection Man
