What do reviewers say about Hexensalbe and Antaeus?
The opening is jarring. Wormwood hits sharp and cold, licorice follows with something almost salty-ammounted, and if you're not braced for it, the whole thing reads as strange. That's the point.Hexensalbe
Antaeus does not ask permission. The castoreum and oakmoss drydown will dominate any room you enter. This is a fragrance for those who want to be remembered, not liked.Antaeus
