    What do reviewers say about Balenciaga L'Essence and Trussardi Skin?

    No sillage cloud, no 'notice me' moment. Just vetiver grounded by leather and moss, that forest-floor stillness. If you need to announce your arrival, look elsewhere.Balenciaga L'Essence
    Modern chypre skeptics need to try this on skin first. The ozonic lift from violet leaf makes it read clean and contemporary rather than dated, and that's not obvious from a bottle list.Trussardi Skin
