What do reviewers say about LouLou and Fidji?
LouLou is not a safe choice. It is big, resinous, and unapologetically floral with a plum-incense core that some adore and others find overwhelming. Wear it with intention or not at all.LouLou
Some fragrances follow the rules. Fidji doesn't, it arrived in 1966 already knowing what it was. The galbanum cuts clean, the iris goes powdery, the oakmoss anchors everything.Fidji
