What do reviewers say about Bling Noir and Valentina Assoluto?
Bling Noir earns every bit of its name. The luxury is real, rose and oud done with genuine weight, but it's the dark undercurrent that makes it interesting. This isn't a fragrance that sweet-talks.Bling Noir
This is the Valentina that went somewhere the original was afraid to. The truffle opening is polarizing, earthy, almost savory, nothing like the soft floral the 2011 version promised.Valentina Assoluto
