What do reviewers say about Vaadhoo and Encre Noire?
Vaadhoo does not ease you in. The ginger arrives like a slap of salt air, then immortelle and violet settle over you like dusk on an island where the palms don't move. The leather base is what stays.Vaadhoo
This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
