    Real talk

    The black orchid doesn't negotiate. It's the note everything else orbits, and some people either love it immediately or need 20 minutes to come around.Euphoria
    One reviewer called it better than the original it echoes, less heavy, more wearable. L'Excellente has earned a loyal following among enthusiasts for its accessible take on a classic fruity-floral.L'Excellente
