    Rose can be polite. Rose can be loud. Tabu Rose keeps its voice down, a quiet afternoon companion that never once raises its hand. The sweetness is there, lychee and amber weaving together.Tabu Rose
    Obsession doesn't invite you in, it consumes. That vanilla-civet combination is either the whole point or a dealbreaker, and the above-average longevity means whatever you decide.Obsession
