What do reviewers say about Wicked John and Gheorghe?
This is a fragrance for people who know what they want. The gunpowder and metal notes aren't for the faint-hearted, they're for someone who finds the scent of hot spent cartridge cases more.Wicked John
This is the fragrance that makes you smell like a conversation, not a cologne. Whiskey and tobacco without the cliché, because the peat keeps it grounded in something earthier.Gheorghe
