    What do reviewers say about Southland and Explorer?

    The flint gives it away. This one opens sharp, mineral, almost austere, then settles into warm amber that does not quit. Where most citrus fragrances are bright and give up quickly.Southland
    It's not trying to be the most interesting fragrance in the room. That's exactly why it works. Explorer is the scent of someone who showed up without needing to prove anything.Explorer
