What do reviewers say about Soie Malaquais and Odette?
This is a sophisticated, feminine scent that leans into contrast. The blackcurrant opening is assertive, but the silk and rose heart keeps it graceful.Soie Malaquais
Some fragrances want to fill the room. Odette wants to sit close. The grapefruit sparkles, the rose stays demure, and the orris-musketone keeps it hovering right at the edge of skin, intimate enough.Odette
