What do reviewers say about L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme EDT and Chocolat?
Star anise is not a shy note. It opens this fragrance like a statement, and if black pepper follows, you know this is not playing it safe. Overall effect is warm and atmospheric.L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme EDT
Chocolat doesn't smell like chocolate sauce. It smells like the idea of chocolate, the way memory distills a thing into its truest form. Cocoa woven through plum.Chocolat
