    What do reviewers say about Escada Margaretha Ley and Classique?

    Floral Orientals aren't supposed to be this confident. Most lean soft, powdery, polite. This one opens green and stays decided, hyacinth's snap followed by coconut warmth that doesn't flinch.Escada Margaretha Ley
    The sillage is not subtle. People will smell you before they see you. That's not a warning, it's the point. Classique is for the woman who walks into a room and changes the air in it.Classique
