What do reviewers say about Enigme and Lagerfeld Classic?
This is one of those discontinued Pierre Cardin fragrances people keep stumbling onto and asking why this ever stopped being made. Alberto Morillas approached this like a real commission.Enigme
This is an honest 70s chypre that has aged gracefully. The basil note is the surprise here, giving it a savory, almost culinary edge that keeps it from feeling dated.Lagerfeld Classic
