What do reviewers say about Ascension and Layton?
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
The sweetness here isn't the problem, it's the solution. Vanilla could easily turn Layton into something one-dimensional, but the cardamom keeps it aromatic and interesting.Layton
