What do reviewers say about Pulp and Black Orchid?
This is an everything-at-once fragrance. Some find it overwhelming. Others find it exactly the kind of bold, unapologetic scent that becomes a signature.Pulp
Black Orchid isn't a fragrance, it's a confrontation. The truffle opening is strange, almost jarring. Then the florals arrive, heavy and rich. The kind of scent people have strong opinions about.Black Orchid
