What do reviewers say about Drakkar Noir and Spirito?
This fragrance has opinions. The 1982 lavender-mint opening either speaks to you or it doesn't, and for those it speaks to, nothing else fills the same space.Drakkar Noir
The real appeal here is that this isn't another masculine fougere trying to prove something. It's herbal and soft instead, meditative, botanical. Spirito asks you to slow down.Spirito
