What do reviewers say about Encre Noire and Humus?
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
This fragrance doesn't ask permission. It opens bright, then walks into a forest. If you've ever wanted to smell the moment after rain, this is it. Bold? Yes. Complicated? Less than you'd think.Humus
