What do reviewers say about Fille en Aiguilles and Arso?
Fille en Aiguilles is not a safe blind buy. The pine needles hit with an almost aggressive sharpness before the incense and dried fruits soften the edges.Fille en Aiguilles
Arso doesn't shift. It holds. From the first spray to the quiet drydown, smoke stays dominant, pine resin, cedar, leather. The fragrance does the work.Arso
