What do reviewers say about Soie Malaquais and POOL?
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 announce themselves. POOL doesn't, it lingers close, refreshing, like the hour after swimming when you're still damp. Not revolutionary. Just right for summer.POOL
