What do reviewers say about Madison and Poison?
The leather doesn't play backup. It anchors everything, keeps the peony and jasmine from floating into forgettable territory. Brooks Brothers restraint meets something that finally decided to flirt.Madison
Sweet enough to draw people in, complex enough to split opinion. That's not a flaw, that's the point. Poison wears like a dare, and the wearer who chooses it knows exactly what they're carrying.Poison
