What do reviewers say about Vert des Bois and Encre Noire?
Vert des Bois is built around poplar bud, a material that appears infrequently in modern perfumery. It hits the nose fast and differently. Some reach for it immediately; others need a minute.Vert des Bois
This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
