    What do reviewers say about Prerogative and Gardenia?

    Some fragrances wait to be noticed. This one arrives. Coffee-saffron boldness, then sandalwood warmth that adds a lingering finish. The kind of scent that gets remembered, make it yours this season.Prerogative
    What you smell is the Black Opium effect, that coffee-vanilla sweetness distilled into something lighter and brighter, without the price tag or the pretense. The florals keep it from getting heavy.Gardenia
