What do reviewers say about Avant and Explorer?
The smoky vetiver in the drydown represents a defining choice in this fragrance's composition. For many wearers, this mineral, earthy quality becomes the reason for repeat purchase.Avant
It's not trying to be the most interesting fragrance in the room. That's exactly why it works. Explorer is the scent of someone who showed up without needing to prove anything.Explorer
