What do reviewers say about Meadow & Fir and Fille en Aiguilles?
Soft without being delicate. That's the trick here, it's resinous and sweet, but never cloying. There's a green sharpness from the fir that keeps things grounded.Meadow & Fir
Fille en Aiguilles is not a safe blind buy. The pine needles hit with an almost aggressive sharpness before the incense and dried fruits soften the edges.Fille en Aiguilles
