What do reviewers say about Herod and Oajan?
Some fragrances suggest. Herod insists. The tobacco-vanilla base isn't subtle, it's the whole argument, and it wins. Sweet enough to pull people in, structured enough to keep them at a distance.Herod
Oajan doesn't whisper. The cinnamon hits hard and the honey never lets go, but the osmanthus and artemisia keep it from becoming a sugar bomb. Not subtle, but never crude either.Oajan
