    What do reviewers say about China Rose and LouLou?

    A rose that refuses to apologize. It's powdery but never retiring, warm but never cozy. The clove keeps it interesting, the vetiver keeps it real. This is the fragrance for someone who doesn't need.China Rose
    LouLou is not a safe choice. It is big, resinous, and unapologetically floral with a plum-incense core that some adore and others find overwhelming. Wear it with intention or not at all.LouLou
