What do reviewers say about Tourmaline and Crystal Noir?
Floral-green-aquatic done without the fog. Most compositions in this family blur into anonymity. Tourmaline goes two directions. The top is transparent, cool, refreshingly clear.Tourmaline
Crystal Noir is not subtle and it knows it. The pepper and ginger opening is unapologetically assertive, but the coconut gardenia heart is where it wins people over.Crystal Noir
