What do reviewers say about Open Black and Pasha Cartier?
While 2013 flooded the market with aquatics and fresh cleansers, Open Black went the other way. Aromatic fougère with tobacco, patchouli, vetiver. The kind of masculine confidence that remembers when.Open Black
This is a fougère that knows what it wants. The mint and mandarin opening feels genuinely fresh without being generic. The alyssum-coriander heart gives it an old-world warmth that most modern.Pasha Cartier
