What do reviewers say about Herbe Zen and Santal 33?
The mint and green notes are bold and direct, vegetal and herbal without excessive refinement. If you are looking for something that smells expensive and complicated, this is not it.Herbe Zen
This fragrance is less a perfume and more an atmospheric event. The sandalwood is the anchor but the leather and papyrus make it interesting. Not everyone will appreciate the slightly feral quality.Santal 33
