What do reviewers say about Esencia pour Homme and Tau?
This did neither. It smelled like something else entirely: herbal, green, with a woody character that refused easy categorization. It built on a foundation of honest green and wood.Esencia pour Homme
Tau isn't trying to win the room. It's for the person who doesn't need to be noticed to be remembered. Juniper-forward and woody, with an earthy backbone that holds its ground through eight hours.Tau
