    What do reviewers say about Dejan and Gao?

    This is the smoky rose that refuses to fade into the background. Rose water opens it, but the smoke doesn't step aside, it stays. The composition maintains its edge throughout.Dejan
    For those who love it, Gao becomes an obsession. That medicinal saffron opening that divides opinion? It softens within the hour, and what remains is a warm, resinous oud that stays close and long.Gao
