What do reviewers say about Bal d'Afrique and Kingkydise?
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
Here's the thing about this one: the green tea and iris in the heart are doing something the name doesn't prepare you for. Kingkydise sounds tropical, playful, maybe even sweet. And it is, at first.Kingkydise
