What do reviewers say about Italiano Nero and Black XS?
Some fragrances play it safe. Italiano Nero doesn't, it's bold enough to announce you before you've said a word. Sweet enough to catch attention, warm enough to hold it. That's the whole point.Italiano Nero
This one divides. Some find the praline sweetness too much; others spray it every morning like their alarm. That citrus opening doesn't play it safe, it's the bridge to something richer.Black XS
