What do reviewers say about Poison and Ume?
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
If you've ever thought Japanese floral meant quiet and fleeting, Ume will make you reconsider. The plum isn't a footnote, it's the protagonist. Wisteria and osmanthus give it softness.Ume
