What do reviewers say about Athenaeum and M/Mink?
Pastoral at first. Warm. Then three hours in, something darker arrives, leather, dirty patchouli, a balsamic turn that some find revelatory. The drift from sunny fields into ink and leather is the.Athenaeum
There's a version of avant-garde that performs. M/Mink doesn't. The aldehydic punch reads as cold or clinical to some, that's the point. If you want something that meets you halfway, this won't.M/Mink
