What do reviewers say about Imperial Valley and Yellow?
Gissah chose an unexpected name and committed fully. This is not another Middle Eastern oud fragrance. The cool green notes keep the oud in check, and the leather in the base is genuinely refined.Imperial Valley
The synthetic citrus opening will either pull you in or make you pause. If you can get past that first minute, the drydown rewards you with a warm vanilla that lasts for hours. That's the trade.Yellow
