What do reviewers say about Encre Noire and Nimitz?
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
Nimitz doesn't announce itself loudly, but the pineapple note ensures it leaves an impression. The tropical opening creates an immediate point of difference.Nimitz
