What do reviewers say about Poison and V?
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
Honey and florals blend into a composition that stays gentle, never aggressive, and always wearable. The sweetness of the honey pairs with quiet floral notes and subtle aquatic undertones.V
