    What do reviewers say about Ambre Sultan and Caftan?

    This is not the amber of amber-filled cookies or syrups. It is raw, resinous, and aggressively warm, with herbal and savory notes that emerge depending on your skin chemistry.Ambre Sultan
    The frankincense at its heart is not subtle. It announces itself in a way that some will read as church incense and others will call magnificent, and that's the draw.Caftan
