What do reviewers say about Divine Tentation and Velvet Tonka?
Rum and vanilla can be a mess together. Here, they're not. The spice keeps it honest, the amber keeps it warm. Sweet enough to flirt, dry enough to mean it.Divine Tentation
Velvet Tonka is the kind of sweet that knows when to stop. Alexandra Carlin pulls off the trick of making almond and tonka feel indulgent without going oversaturated.Velvet Tonka
