What do reviewers say about Epine Du Desert and Cairo?
The rose here doesn't ask permission. It arrives with saffron fire and suede warmth, and somehow that combination just works. If polite florals have been disappointing you, this one won't apologize.Epine Du Desert
Cairo is not an obvious fragrance. The rose is not a rose soliflore, and the resins are not a generic oud replacement. This is thoughtful construction from Raynaud, and it rewards patience.Cairo
