    Real talk

    The violet-and-frangipani pairing shouldn't work. Cool against warm, powder against cream. But it does, and the result is a fragrance that doesn't announce itself so much as it lingers.Diane
    Le Protocole Royale sounds serious. It smells like transparency, cool marine, fresh-cut geranium, Bulgarian rose that never shouts. The vanilla and ambroxan in the base save the best for last.Le Protocole Royale
