What do reviewers say about By the Fireplace and Paris Wood On Fire?
Built for the hours you want to stay in. Not the ones you need to leave. The smoke leans Intimate, warm, woody, close. It doesn't fill the room. It earns it.By the Fireplace
Sweet enough to flirt, dry enough to mean it. That's the Montale move, take vanilla, something people associate with softness, and set it on fire. The opening is confrontational.Paris Wood On Fire
