    What do reviewers say about VOODOO and Imperial?

    Some fragrances want to please everyone. Voodoo isn't one of them. Built around Bakhoor-inspired resin and oud, it opens bright then descends into warm, animalic territory that commands the room.VOODOO
    Oud for people who think they don't like oud. The resinous warmth is there, but so is restraint, light enough to wear daily, strong enough to mean it.Imperial
