In a land of exotic splendor, a young Englishwoman finds herself guardian of an orphan child believed by a dying maharajah to be endowed with magical gifts. It is a role that will take her on a perilous journey into a kingdom's walled city to protect a child she doesn't know from a culture she doesn't understand... A Singular Hostage The year is 1838. Mariana Givens, a spirited young woman of twenty, has been sent to India to find a suitable husband. Traveling as a translator, she joins the entourage of Lord Auckland, the British Governor-General, as he journeys across India with an army ten thousand strong to meet the fabled Ranjit Singh, Maharajah of the Punjab. Eager young officers compete for Mariana's favor, but it is with India that she falls in love: the baggage elephants tramping through country vast and wild; the scent of exotic foods at remote campsites; the enigmatic tutor who is her guide to native languages and ways. Lord Auckland must forge an alliance with Ranjit Singh that will deliver Afghanistan into British control, but as he negotiates his crucial treaty, Mariana is drawn into a perilous conspiracy surrounding the one-eyed Maharajah's baby hostage--a child of mystical repute named Saboor.Binding Type: Paperback

So lightweight. Perfect for extra thick hair.
Scent: Hair Styler (1 Pack)
Its almost mousse like in how light weight it is and smells fantastic. I wanted something just above light weight hold and not weigh my thick hair down and this does a great job. A little pricey but SO much better than the usual store brands out there. And my wife is totally in love with how great it smells when I put it on, so bonus!

Smells good and doesn’t feel greasy
Scent: Hair Styler (1 Pack)
Product didn’t leave a greasy feeling to the hands or the hair. Kept hold all day for my hair style but I knew it was light hold going in. It has a great scent

Faithful to the soap's original scent
Scent: Original Citrus + Eucalyptus
I love the Huron Original Citrus + Eucalyptus bar soap so much, I started looking at the cologne from the same company. I collect (too many) fragrances, and love having different scents to choose from depending on the day and occasion. I have plenty of warmer scents, but not enough freshies that I really like. After reading other reviews here on Amazon, I figured this was a safe bet. And I was right!
Performance is great. I use it on my skin only (because I only really want my wife and I smelling me...not everyone else who I walk by). It lasts me 8+ hours easily. And the fragrance is true to the original scent I know from Huron's soap. Exactly what I wanted. It's a very fair price for a cologne that performs this well, and I can wear it anywhere for any purpose, very versatile.
The bottle is nice and the atomizer is strong and even.

Breathe in my essence and remember me!
Scent: Original Citrus + Eucalyptus
Alright, listen up, because I’m about to let you in on the best-kept secret in men’s fragrance. This right here—Huron Eau de Parfum—is not just a cologne. Oh no, this is a power move in a bottle.
You spritz this on, and it’s like stepping into a world where you’ve just conquered a mountain, tamed a wild stallion, and shaken hands with destiny. Crisp citrus, fresh eucalyptus, a hint of mint, and aromatic greens—it’s like Mother Nature whipped up a scent just for men who are ready to take on the world. We’re talking about a cologne that’s refreshing enough to wake you up better than a cold shower and bold enough to say, “Yeah, I’m here. And I smell damn fantastic.”
And here’s the kicker: this stuff is long-lasting. None of that “spray it in the morning, gone by lunchtime” nonsense. No, this baby’s got stamina—just like any real champion should. You’ll still be smelling like a million bucks well after the day is done. And let’s not forget the ingredients: safe, clean, the kind of stuff that says, “I care about what I’m putting on my skin because I’m a class act.”
So if you’re looking for a fragrance that says champion, look no further. Huron Eau de Parfum is that fresh, invigorating smell of victory bottled up just for you. Five stars. Because this is for men who don’t just live life—they dominate it.
