What do reviewers say about Arabian Nights and Oud Ispahan?
The saffron isn't decoration. It's the argument. Keeps the rose honest instead of pretty, cuts through the smoke before it can wallow. If oud has intimidated you, this is where to start, resinous.Arabian Nights
Oud Ispahan is not for the faint of heart. The labdanum opening hits hard and the oud-rose drydown lingers for hours. If you want something subtle, look elsewhere.Oud Ispahan
