    What do reviewers say about Only You and Encre Noire?

    A lesser-known Russian house made a fragrance that punches well above its weight. The citrus opening hits harder than you'd expect from this price point.Only You
    This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
