    What do reviewers say about Optus V and Continuum?

    Powdery florals with an animalic kick. The rum opening surprises, but it's the civet that stays with you, threaded through the heart, refusing to let the iris go pretty.Optus V
    If you're hunting for something that smells like it's already been places, this is it. The frankincense gives it a smoky backbone most citrus-forward fragrances skip entirely.Continuum
