    What do reviewers say about Carambolage and Dries Van Noten par Frederic Malle?

    Carambolage earns its name. The aldehydes give it a cool, almost distant quality while the rhubarb and cade oil keep pulling you back to something earthier, stranger. It's not trying to be pleasant.Carambolage
    Some fragrances whisper. This one leans in. A gourmand hymn to sandalwood, milky, warm, almost sticky with vanilla, but the saffron keeps it from going fully soft.Dries Van Noten par Frederic Malle
