What do reviewers say about Knowing and Paloma Picasso?
The boldness isn't volume, it's certainty. Above-average staying power means the kind of presence that walks into a room already knowing the outcome. Knowing doesn't announce itself loudly.Knowing
Paloma Picasso doesn't whisper. It arrives in a room and rearranges the air. Some people find that overwhelming on first spray, the aldehydes spike sharp, the carnation doesn't apologize, but that's.Paloma Picasso
