What do reviewers say about Chai Desert and Purpose 50?
The coffee is the point. Not a trendy coffee fragrance, actual arabica, grounded and real. Oud and vanilla keep it from reading sweet. Spice and smoke finish it off.Chai Desert
This is not a safe blind buy. Purpose 50 announces itself with medicinal smoke that some will find polarizing. It settles into a rich, smoky amber skin scent.Purpose 50
