What do reviewers say about Vanilla Romance and Velvet Gold?
This isn't the vanilla that makes you smell like a bakery. Cardamom sharpens the whole thing into something with edges, smoky, woody, adult. Some people call it masculine.Vanilla Romance
Some fragrances are satisfied being pretty. Velvet Gold wants more than that. Beneath the powdery softness and caramel sweetness lives a pulse, animalic, warm, restless. That's everything.Velvet Gold
