What do reviewers say about Coven and Lightsource?
Some fragrances ask if you're ready. Coven doesn't. The galbanum and oakmoss create an unusual earthiness, somewhere between old-growth forest and ancient stone, but the vanilla and whiskey.Coven
The lemon-candy opening isn't for everyone. But the green fig underneath, the jasmine warmth that follows, the way it remembers you're dancing and not just posing, that's what makes it worth the risk.Lightsource
