What do reviewers say about Habanita and Bal à Versailles?
The opening is odd. Mastic and petitgrain don't usually share space, yet here they do. It reads medicinal, resinous, almost astringent before the vanilla arrives.Habanita
The civet is not subtle. Neither is the leather, the resin, or the fact that this was made in 1962 by someone who didn't ask permission. If the warm, golden, multilayered character calls to you.Bal à Versailles
