What do reviewers say about Coeur Noir and Vanilj?
The opening is the audition, medicinal, resinous, almost harsh before it softens. But once the vanilla arrives, that apothecary cabinet sits in warm sunlight and doesn't move for hours.Coeur Noir
Soft without being safe. The cardamom keeps it from going full gourmand, adds a spiced edge that stops it from feeling like dessert. It's powdery and warm.Vanilj
