What do reviewers say about Pure DKNY and Soft Spot?
This won't announce itself. Pure DKNY is for someone who's moved past needing strangers to ask what she's wearing. The florals whisper, the vanilla barely hints at sweetness.Pure DKNY
Phlur keeps things simple here. Soft Spot is an intimate, wearable floral that does exactly what it says on the tin. No surprises, just good execution on a familiar vibe.Soft Spot
