    Real talk

    Sweet enough to flirt, grounded enough to mean it. The ylang-ylang adds that warm spice that pulls the florals away from anything too precious. It's powdery in a way that feels worn, not applied.Geo Donna
    LouLou is not a safe choice. It is big, resinous, and unapologetically floral with a plum-incense core that some adore and others find overwhelming. Wear it with intention or not at all.LouLou
