    What do reviewers say about Duke of Burgundy and Boxeuses?

    The shoe polish note is either your first red flag or your favorite thing in the room. What tips it: this isn't boot polish. It's the warm, waxy accord underneath leather that makes this feel like.Duke of Burgundy
    Licorice splits the room. Some wearers catch it medicinal, others find it the whole point. Either way, Boxeuses doesn't nudge. It declares. That split is the appeal, if everyone likes it.Boxeuses
