What do reviewers say about Valparaiso and Baume du Doge?
The opening hits harder than you'd expect. That cardamom bite either pulls you in or makes you pause. By the time the resins arrive, you've made your decision.Valparaiso
Cinnamon-orange opening that's sharp enough to divide a room. Some find it medicinal at first. But stick around, the myrrh and benzoin that follow are sticky, sweet.Baume du Doge
