    Real talk

    Dreaming in Portofino is softer than the original Light Blue, and it wears that way too. The osmanthus-iris heart is where this fragrance lives, and if you have never smelled osmanthus before.Light Blue Dreaming in Portofino
    Crystal Noir is not subtle and it knows it. The pepper and ginger opening is unapologetically assertive, but the coconut gardenia heart is where it wins people over.Crystal Noir
