What do reviewers say about Purple Water and Bright Neroli?
Not a fragrance that announces itself. The citrus opens clean, the florals arrive quietly, and by the time vetiver settles in, you're the only one who knows it's there.Purple Water
This is what neroli smells like when it doesn't have to apologize for its price. The Sichuan pepper keeps it honest, the ambroxan keeps it clean, and at this value rating.Bright Neroli
