What do reviewers say about Aegyptus and Violet Noir?
This is the fragrance for someone who wants exotic without shouting it. Powdery warmth, yes, but the papyrus and blue lotus underneath give it a texture most oriental florals skip entirely.Aegyptus
This is the fragrance that starts fruity-sweet and ends somewhere darker. The patchouli in the base gives it an edge that the opening doesn't promise, and that's the whole point.Violet Noir
