What do reviewers say about Yohji and Genua?
There's a version of quiet that's louder than loud. This is that fragrance. It's not going to announce itself across a room, but the person next to you will lean in.Yohji
That bitter-fresh myrrh running through the whole arc is rare in mainstream perfumery. It's not a safe choice, but it is a memorable one. If the combination appeals, it's worth seeking out.Genua
