What do reviewers say about Oxford Street and Akaster?
It's a barbershop scent that didn't get the memo about being a barbershop scent. The truffle and star anise don't belong in the same category as fougère and tonka.Oxford Street
Rose and oud is a pairing, but Akaster plays it differently. The rose is green and bitter, the oud barely there. It won't announce itself across a room. That polarizes people.Akaster
