    What do reviewers say about Betty Barclay Woman No 2 and Brilliant Wish?

    This is a fragrance that rewards close attention. Powdery violet over warm vanilla, with just enough cedar to keep it grounded and prevent the sweetness from taking over.Betty Barclay Woman No 2
    This is for the woman who doesn't need to fill the room. The sillage is moderate, close, intimate, a secret between two people. If you want to be smelled from across the street.Brilliant Wish
