    Real talk

    Most people who tried it weren't expecting much. Then the apple hit. Tart, green, and nowhere near as sweet as the bottle shape suggested. White tea kept it grounded.Promise Me
    The name sounds like a red carpet, but the scent is more brunch than the after-party. Bright citrus and jammy raspberry give way to a gardenia that actually smells like gardenia, not synthetic.Very Hollywood
