What do reviewers say about Poivre and Boudoir?
A pepper-forward composition that doesn't retreat into politeness. The blackcurrant keeps it from being a one-note declaration, but make no mistake, this is about that opening.Poivre
Boudoir is essentially a time capsule from the late 1990s, when maximalist florals with aldehydic structure were still very much in fashion. The tobacco flower in the base gives it an unexpected edge.Boudoir
