What do reviewers say about Absinth and Viride?
This isn't trying to be your favorite fragrance. It's trying to be the one that gets under your skin. Wormwood does that, it lingers, it changes, it refuses to fade.Absinth
Alessandro Gualtieri does not do polite. Viride starts bitter and ends resinous, with jasmine doing just enough floral work to keep things from tipping fully into forest-bark territory.Viride
