What do reviewers say about Ascension and Lamar?

There are plenty of fresh fragrances that stay clean. Ascension doesn't. That bergamot arrives with an edge, sharp and assertive in a way that feels deliberate.Ascension

Pineapple and rose together isn't subtle. It's a deliberate clash, and if that works for you, Lamar rewards with projection that announces arrival before the door opens.Lamar
