What do reviewers say about Almond Suede and Faux Semblant?
Almond Suede is the scent of a leather jacket left out in summer sun. It balances sweet and sharp, warm and textured. Not a crowd-pleaser, but definitely a conversation starter.Almond Suede
The honey-orange blossom heart is lush, almost confectionery, but then the oud-sandalwood base arrives and remembers it has somewhere to be. It's that Givenchy move: pretty on the surface.Faux Semblant
