What do reviewers say about Amber Intense and Black Saffron (Eau de Parfum)?
Warm enough to wear to dinner. Tart enough to wear to argue. The saffron keeps the vanilla honest, this isn't your typical amber. Sweet, yes. But it has a point of view.Amber Intense
Black Saffron is the one that doesn't announce itself. It occupies space without demanding attention, gets remembered by people who happen to be standing nearby.Black Saffron (Eau de Parfum)
