    What do reviewers say about Anais Anais L’Original Eau de Parfum and Magnolia?

    The 1978 original had a grittier drydown. This 2014 version cleaned it up, made it sweeter, more powdery. Some say it lost the plot. We say: it's the same spirit, better manners.Anais Anais L’Original Eau de Parfum
    Magnolia doesn't try to be anything other than a late-80s white floral. And that's exactly why it works. The clean, soapy finish that some call dated is actually the blueprint.Magnolia
