What do reviewers say about Sketch and Oriental Express?
This is vanilla that refuses to apologize. The patchouli keeps it from going full dessert; the tuberose keeps it from going full hippie. Warm, confident.Sketch
It's the carrot seed that starts arguments. Earthy, dry, almost mineral, this is not a typical oriental base. But in a powdery-woody composition like this one, it works.Oriental Express
