What do reviewers say about LouLou and Joya?
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 aldehydic floral at full confidence. The powdery heart doesn't ask permission, it arrives and settles. The aldehydes bring structure without coldness.Joya
