    What do reviewers say about Miel De Bois and Bois Lumière?

    The honey is raw and animalic, polarizing on purpose. Sweetness that doesn't know how to apologize. That intensity either pulls you in or makes you flinch. On skin, it only gets more interesting.Miel De Bois
    It calls itself light. It's not. The honey isn't sunny, it's thick, amber-dark, closer to warm honeycomb. Beeswax and benzoin anchor everything deep into skin.Bois Lumière
