What do reviewers say about Carambolage and Rock River Melody?
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
Rock River Melody is not a crowd-pleaser. The galbanum in the opening is aggressive, the narcissus in the heart borders on polarizing. If you want something safe, look elsewhere.Rock River Melody
