What do reviewers say about Narcotic Delight and Elysian?
Initio does not do subtlety. Narcotic Delight is dense, slightly animalic, and built for people who want to be noticed. Otherwise, this is not for the cubicle.Narcotic Delight
French Avenue's Elysian skews toward the bold side from the get-go, and it does not try to hide that. The plum and cherry opening feels like biting into something dark and jammy.Elysian
