    What do reviewers say about 1804 and Birmane?

    The tiare isn't subtle. Neither is the pineapple. If you're hunting quiet elegance, keep walking. But if you want a tropical fantasy that smells like someone who walked in from the heat.1804
    This is powdery. Not experimental, not challenging, just a warm, sweet embrace of heliotrope, vanilla, and sandalwood that lingers close to the skin. It's the kind of scent that feels like a cashmere.Birmane
