What do reviewers say about Poison and Dolce&Gabbana?
Sweet enough to draw people in, complex enough to split opinion. That's not a flaw, that's the point. Poison wears like a dare, and the wearer who chooses it knows exactly what they're carrying.Poison
This is the original statement piece, not a crowd-pleaser. The aldehydes might feel dated if you're used to modern formulations. Wear it knowing what you're signing up for.Dolce&Gabbana
