What do reviewers say about Bestia Sacra and Epic Man?
This is not a safe fragrance. It is intensely animalic, dense with smoke and resin, and completely uninterested in being pleasant for its own sake. That rawness is the entire point.Bestia Sacra
Epic Man is not subtle. This is a fragrance that announces itself, and the frankincense upfront is unmissable. If you want something for the boardroom, look elsewhere.Epic Man
