What do reviewers say about Imperial and Muscat?
Some fragrances announce themselves. Imperial already knows. The fir and cypress open like a forest in winter, but the frankincense and cashmeran underneath shift the whole thing toward warmth.Imperial
The saffron opening is a statement, slightly bitter, unmistakably present. It backs off within 30 minutes, but you remember it. This is oud for people who want depth without darkness.Muscat
