What do reviewers say about Duke of Burgundy and Plum Japonais?
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
Dense, dark, and unapologetically bold. Plum Japonais doesn't whisper or fade, it announces and then lingers on your collar, your scarf, the air behind you.Plum Japonais
