What do reviewers say about Markessa and Saint Honoré?
The hazelnut either pulls you in immediately or overwhelms you in the first spray. That's the gamble of Markessa, and honestly, the reason it sticks. Eight to ten hours of warmth, moderate sillage.Markessa
Some fragrances shout. This one leans in. The hazelnut-milk combo is the hook, creamy, edible, but never cloying. It earns its sweetness through restraint.Saint Honoré
