What do reviewers say about L'orpheline and Wild Tobacco?
L'orpheline asks you to commit. It has no softening introduction, no grand finale. You wear the heart notes and that is all. If you want layers, look elsewhere. If you want honesty, this is it.L'orpheline
Wild Tobacco earns its name twice over. The clove hits like a match strike, a surprise that either becomes your thing or gets scrubbed off. If it survives your first wear, you've found a signature.Wild Tobacco
