White florals and honey: sounds like it would be a disaster on me, so I'm surprised to find it isn't! It's like they know what they're doing over at Chanel or something. This actually smells like a fr...
Leave it to Olivia Giacobetti to create a frankincense fragrance that's light and airy, so unlike the heavy incenses you commonly find. I get the cool dank stone of an ancient building; fresh water wi...
As with other Jean-Claude Ellena scents so far, this grows on me with each wearing. This one has the good aspects of fruit notes--fresh, juicy, tasty, summery--without the bad ones (cloying, over-ripe...
