What do reviewers say about Kythnos and Epic Man?
Cool and herbal. Then it gets interesting. Lavender carries a camphorated edge that most people underestimate, this isn't the soapy stuff. Think wild herbs crushed between your fingers.Kythnos
Epic Man is not subtle. This is a fragrance that announces itself, and the frankincense upfront is unmissable. If you want something for the boardroom, look elsewhere.Epic Man
