    What do reviewers say about Byerley and Desire Black?

    Some men stopped needing the room to notice. Byerley is their scent. The cardamom and vetiver pairing isn't common, and that uniqueness is the whole point, woody, aromatic.Byerley
    This one plays it safe in the opening, then quietly wins you over. The smoky vetiver drydown is where Desire Black earns its name, not loud, not trying, just lingers on the skin like it belongs there.Desire Black
