What do reviewers say about Raining Violets and Diorissimo?
A violet cologne from 1972 that still smells current. Not because it's revolutionary, because it's honest. No projection wars, no identity crisis. Just the flower and the fresh air that made it.Raining Violets
Diorissimo is not for those who want their florals pretty and polite. This is the real thing, green and alive, with a rawness that feels almost botanical.Diorissimo
