    Real talk

    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
    This is a dramatic, old-world fragrance that does not apologize for its power. If you want subtlety, look elsewhere. Bal à Versailles demands attention and rewards those who appreciate classical.Bal à Versailles Eau de Cologne
