    What do reviewers say about Frankenstein and Montabaco?

    This one doesn't smooth its edges. Matcha and seaweed shouldn't share space, but here they do, and the tension is the point. If you want a fragrance that plays it safe, walk past.Frankenstein
    Montabaco rewards patience. The opening is excellent, but the real payoff is that suede-tobacco-sandalwood drydown. Give it time to breathe on your skin and it delivers something genuinely layered.Montabaco
