    What do reviewers say about Mon Numero 3 and Encre Noire?

    The vetiver-lavender combination could easily dominate a composition, but the iris pulls it back, makes it whisper instead. Not a safe choice. The balance between these materials creates something.Mon Numero 3
    This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
