What do reviewers say about Assenzio and Ambre Sultan?
Most fragrances sweet-talk you. Assenzio earns your attention, bitter, aromatic, herbal. The wormwood is the point, not a quirk. It's a fragrance that respects you enough not to apologize for being.Assenzio
This is not the amber of amber-filled cookies or syrups. It is raw, resinous, and aggressively warm, with herbal and savory notes that emerge depending on your skin chemistry.Ambre Sultan
