What do reviewers say about Vanilla Suede and Velvet Gold?
You want to smell like something. Not announce yourself. The powdery vanilla has a way of pulling people in, they lean closer, not you. Even connoisseurs find something to love.Vanilla Suede
Some fragrances are satisfied being pretty. Velvet Gold wants more than that. Beneath the powdery softness and caramel sweetness lives a pulse, animalic, warm, restless. That's everything.Velvet Gold
