What do reviewers say about Gourmandises and Datura Noir?
Sweet enough to draw you in. Spicy enough to keep you guessing. That saffron-sugar contrast is what makes it divisive, and unforgettable. One whiff and you'll understand the pull.Gourmandises
It smells like the most beautiful mistake you ever made. Sweet enough to keep you there, bitter enough to remind you it could go sideways. The coconut, almond, and white florals layer into something.Datura Noir
