What do reviewers say about Acqua Sale and Mont de Narcisse?
Bottega Veneta made a quiet fragrance. Some will call that restraint a flaw. The people who get it won't. Acqua Sale rewards those who wear scent for themselves, not for the room, close, warm.Acqua Sale
This one splits opinion because it earns it. The name promises delicate yellow flowers; the fragrance delivers dark leather and smoke instead. Some call it a betrayal.Mont de Narcisse
