What do reviewers say about Wildfire and Pale Fire?
The opening hits hard. Peppermint and black pepper make for a sharp, almost confrontational first impression, but it's the costus root in the base that keeps people talking for hours.Wildfire
Pale Fire doesn't try to smell expensive. It smells true. The powdery cocoa and vanilla work as a pair, gourmand enough to comfort, dry enough to keep you interested.Pale Fire
