What do reviewers say about Black Tea and Virēre?

Cinnamon and aldehydes is an unexpected pairing, one that usually reads as vintage. Here it's been rerouted. Less dusty cinema, more modern clarity. The aldehydes don't just lift the spice.Black Tea

Virere does not announce itself. The galbanum hits quickly but dissipates, and then the green tea and mate quietly take over for hours. If you want something loud, this is not it.Virēre
