    What do reviewers say about Esencia de Duende and Roma (Eau de Toilette)?

    Discontinued, yes. But this is a fragrance at its most considered, a green floral at its most confident. Cool, structured, slightly unknowable.Esencia de Duende
    Roma feels like standing in a Roman piazza at midday. The citrus and herbal opening is brisk and confident, but the drydown with its sandalwood and oakmoss is where this fragrance earns its status.Roma (Eau de Toilette)
