    What do reviewers say about Sultan Noir and Carlisle?

    The aldehydic opening is love-it-or-leave-it, but that champagne sparkle is exactly what makes a 1980 composition feel alive. Once the florals warm up, you're in it for the long haul.Sultan Noir
    Bold sweetness with a spicy kickback, tonka and vanilla carry the weight but saffron and davana keep it from tipping into dessert territory. It's warm without being heavy.Carlisle
