What do reviewers say about Beso Negro and Ambrosia Imperiale?
Not a beach scent. Not a summer scent. Beso Negro is for the hour when everyone else has left and you're still there, leaning against something. The violet-leather pairing is the whole point.Beso Negro
The banana-rum opening is the whole point. It either stops you in your tracks or slides right past. If it stops you, this is the one. Bold projection and the kind of scent that announces itself.Ambrosia Imperiale
