What do reviewers say about Seminalis and Magnificent Black?
If the word 'animalic' makes you nervous, Seminalis will test that. But it's not aggressive, it's warm, milky, and almost cozy once it settles. The sweetness and cream are genuine.Seminalis
Amber-forward and unapologetic. The mineral water accord keeps things cool while violet's powdery sweetness slips through. It smells expensive, not like you tried to smell expensive.Magnificent Black
