Real talk
This is unapologetically floral. The opening bursts with green-citrus energy before tuberose and jasmine take over. Clove and nutmeg add unexpected warmth.5th Avenue
What makes Russian Flowers Exciting work is the rhubarb. Not green and leafy, sharp and alive. It gives the rose and violet something to play off instead of just floating in sweetness.Russian Flowers Exciting
