What do reviewers say about Private Room and Byzantium?
The gourmand sweetness is the whole point. If you want a quiet floral, keep walking. But if you want a fragrance that wraps around you and doesn't let go for hours, this is the one worth trying.Private Room
This is one of the more interesting budget-orientals available. The almond-cinnamon opening has more character than you might expect from the brand. The drydown with cocoa and oud is where it earns.Byzantium
