What do reviewers say about The Bee's Knees and Slowdive?
This isn't sweet. The opening hits like cold smoke and bitter herbs, then something warmer takes over, tobacco and leather holding close. If that sounds like your kind of conversation.The Bee's Knees
Slowdive smells like summer condensed into a bottle. The orange blossom neroli opening is gorgeous, but the real story is that beeswax tobacco heart. It is rich without being heavy, sweet without.Slowdive
