What do reviewers say about Starring and 5th Avenue?
Quiet confidence. Fruity-floral without the candy, creamy enough to feel luxurious, woody warmth that develops throughout the day. Not the fragrance that announces itself.Starring
This is unapologetically floral. The opening bursts with green-citrus energy before tuberose and jasmine take over. Clove and nutmeg add unexpected warmth.5th Avenue
