    What do reviewers say about Bois Farine and Spanish Veil?

    Bois Farine divides people on the iris. Some find it meditative, a quiet powder that becomes part of your skin. Others find it too soft, they want a fragrance that announces itself and Bois Farine.Bois Farine
    The smoky note doesn't announce itself. It lingers beneath the vanilla, giving this something other sweet woody fragrances lack, a memory of smoke that pulls you back in. It's not dramatic.Spanish Veil
