What do reviewers say about LouLou and Musk S?
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 fill a room. This one fills a sweater. The paradox of Musk S is that what reads cool on first spray becomes the warmest thing on your skin by the hour, quiet, intimate.Musk S
