    What do reviewers say about Rare Pearls and Blooming Opal?

    This fragrance isn't for the person who wants to be noticed. It's for the one who doesn't need to be. Honey makes it sweet, but pepper keeps it from becoming syrup.Rare Pearls
    Tuberose and coconut is the kind of combination that could tip into sunscreen territory on the wrong skin. But here, Harry Frémont keeps it grounded. The florals are lush without tipping into.Blooming Opal
