What do reviewers say about Colorado & Florida and Phtaloblue?
A fragrance that doesn't care if you get it. Built for someone who's hiked a mountain and wants to smell like they did, not perform like they did. The osmanthus heart is the surprise guest.Colorado & Florida
The fennel makes this different. Not another aquatic that smells like hotel lobby, this one has an herb garden running parallel to the ocean. If you've been burned by synthetic sea notes before.Phtaloblue
