What do reviewers say about Ilham and Caramel Sugar?
This is sweet, but not obedient. The oud doesn't hide from the caramel, it sits beside it, reshaping what sweetness means. Vanilla anchors the whole thing. Some collectors chase this for years.Ilham
One reviewer called it 'definitely not sweet', and they weren't wrong. The caramel is restrained, almost dry. What holds the composition together is Cypriol's soft leather undertone threading through.Caramel Sugar
