    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
    The kind of warmth that doesn't demand a room. Powdery, yes, but the powder of aldehydes and heliotrope, not department store dust. This is the fragrance you wear when you've stopped trying to.Cornubia
