What do reviewers say about Underworld and Plum Japonais?
Some fragrances want to be noticed. Underworld wants to be found. The coffee-vetiver pairing is unexpected, bitter and earthy against each other, neither softening the other.Underworld
Dense, dark, and unapologetically bold. Plum Japonais doesn't whisper or fade, it announces and then lingers on your collar, your scarf, the air behind you.Plum Japonais
