    What do reviewers say about Secret Obsession and Fan Your Flames?

    The tuberose is where this gets interesting. Not the creamy, safe kind, something with a real edge. If you want a fragrance that whispers, look elsewhere.Secret Obsession
    It is not a safe blind buy. The coconut-rum opening is unapologetically sweet, and the drydown swings earthy and green from the Chinese toon. Its warmth truly shines.Fan Your Flames
