What do reviewers say about FOR REST and Carduus?
FOR REST is for the person who's done performing. The person who doesn't need a fragrance to announce them when they walk in. It's subtle and modern, a quiet composition of hinoki and yuzu that.FOR REST
Carduus doesn't negotiate. The opening hits like a wall of herbs, then transforms into something quiet and spiritual. If you've ever wanted a fragrance that feels like a ceremony, this is it.Carduus
