    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
    It's the aldehydes. That's the thing nobody warns you about. Versus Donna opens like a 90s disco ball, all sparkle and attitude, and if that's not your lane, you'll never make it past the first spray.Versus Donna
