    What do reviewers say about Bois Doré and Cargo de Nuit?

    Sweet-woody with an edge. For someone who wants vanilla without the obvious, almond without the pastry. The mineral and pepper give it a pulse beneath the warmth. A quiet luxury, not a statement.Bois Doré
    This one does not announce itself. The mineral and woody heart creates a uniquely contemplative space, the scent of salt air on a weathered deck at 3 AM.Cargo de Nuit
