What do reviewers say about Genevieve and Sandalwood Sacré?
Genevieve is for those who want a fragrance that does not announce itself loudly. The vanilla and sandalwood base settles into an intimate, enveloping warmth.Genevieve
This is powdery in the way great vintage is powdery, not dated, but assured. The civet isn't a dare; it's a whisper. If you're after something that announces itself, keep walking.Sandalwood Sacré
