Which Should You Buy?
A regal, intoxicating blend of spiced apple and creamy vanilla swirled with dark patchouli. Carlisle is a statement scent for those who want to be noticed and enveloped in plush sophistication.
This one's a proper love-or-hate affair. NeoRio is an indulgent, boozy amber that's divisive but undeniably bold and complex. Prepare for a rich, syrupy experience that isn't for the faint-hearted.
