What do reviewers say about Retba and Babylon?
The saffron doesn't whisper. It arrives bold, tinged with the same magenta that colors Lake Retba. If you're looking for something safe, look elsewhere.Retba
This is for someone who wants warmth without aggression. Babylon opens with real spice, saffron, nutmeg, coriander, then folds into vanilla and cedar that stays close and warm.Babylon
