    What do reviewers say about By the Fireplace and Erotika Maximale?

    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
    The animalic thread is the tell. It sits beneath the powder from the first spray, quiet and insistent. Controversial? Some find it almost obscene on skin. Others smell only cedar and iris.Erotika Maximale
