    What do reviewers say about Violette and Le Baiser?

    Fragonard's Violette is the antidote to trying too hard. Powdery violet, yes, but anchored by blackberry and musk so it reads as effortless rather than precious.Violette
    Le Baiser means 'the kiss.' Nothing about this composition argues with that. Powdery florals, a warm cream drydown, the whole thing behaving like something you'd want pressed into your collarbone.Le Baiser
