What do reviewers say about Tar and Megamare?
Tar is dark. Industrial. Black, the smell of it melting on summer pavement is not what you'd call inviting. Until the sweetness arrives. Caramel and licorice cut through the tar.Tar
This isn't your typical aquatic fragrance. It lacks the transparent soapiness or synthetic shower-fresh quality found in most ocean scents. The marine accord carries actual mass and substance.Megamare
