What do reviewers say about Chai Desert and Porthole?
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
If tropical fruit is the genre, Porthole is the dare. Pineapple and passion fruit could be a cliché, but iodine and salt refuse to let it coast. The real trick?Porthole
