    What do reviewers say about Prolixe and Tonka?

    This is for people who want to be smelled. The cardamom opening is a statement, aromatic, unapologetic, and the rose-tobacco drydown is what makes strangers stop and ask. Bold, yes.Prolixe
    If you want safe, look elsewhere. The honey doesn't whisper, it floods in with the clove, bold enough to make people fall hard or step back. That's the point.Tonka
