What do reviewers say about Blackmail and A City On Fire?
This fragrance wants something from you. The berry-smoke combo isn't polite, it's the person at the bar who knows exactly what they're doing. Not for those who prefer their fragrances to ask.Blackmail
Some fragrances want to be liked. This one doesn't care either way. The cade oil opens like a lit match near gasoline, volatile, immediate, a little dangerous.A City On Fire
