What do reviewers say about Russian Tea and Grand Soir?
Russian Tea doesn't negotiate. The smoke, the leather, the bitter tea, it's a lot. But that's the point. Some people want a fragrance that smells like a decision.Russian Tea
Grand Soir doesn't whisper. It leans fully into its amber-vanilla identity, offering an unapologetic, intimate warmth that stays close to the skin. Bold in its simplicity.Grand Soir
