What do reviewers say about Master Mind Rouge and Byzantium?
Jasmine and ylang-ylang walk in expecting something delicate. Then cedar and patchouli show up. This is the floral that refuses to be precious, sweet enough to mean it, dry enough to back it up.Master Mind Rouge
This is one of the more interesting budget-orientals available. The almond-cinnamon opening has more character than you might expect from the brand. The drydown with cocoa and oud is where it earns.Byzantium
