What do reviewers say about Private Code and Poka?
Dates and plum over leather and oud isn't a quiet conversation. It's the kind of fragrance that arrives before you do, a statement made by someone who already knows what they want.Private Code
Poka does not smell like you bathed in dessert. The popcorn note is uncanny and the apple pie reads as atmospheric rather than literal. Andreas Wilhelm treats sweetness as texture, not target.Poka
