What do reviewers say about Adagio and Vivace?
Built for the wearer who doesn't need permission. The oakmoss presence is not subtle, it's assertive, beautiful, and patient. The kind of projection that lasts past midnight on the right skin.Adagio
Vivace isn't shy, and it won't pretend to be. Castoreum and ambergris give this a raw, animalic edge that sits right at the edge of propriety, warm enough to draw people in.Vivace
