What do reviewers say about L'eau Nirique and Datura Noir?
The banana note is what makes this one interesting. Not everyone expects it, and some people have opinions. But it works, it keeps the sweetness from floating away entirely.L'eau Nirique
It smells like the most beautiful mistake you ever made. Sweet enough to keep you there, bitter enough to remind you it could go sideways. The coconut, almond, and white florals layer into something.Datura Noir
