What do reviewers say about Corfu and Bal d'Afrique?
Rhubarb in fragrance usually goes synthetic and candy-sweet. Here it stays tart, almost medicinal, the stem, not the pie. If that sounds strange, it should.Corfu
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
