    What do reviewers say about UViolet and Journey?

    Here's the thing about floral-fruity: it either hedges or commits. UViolet commits, sweet enough to feel like a treat, green enough to stay interesting. The grapefruit isn't decoration.UViolet
    Some want to announce themselves. Journey wants to sit next to you and mean it. That minty-green opening is the wake-up call, the thing that keeps it from ever getting too sweet or too much.Journey
