What do reviewers say about French Avenue - Meringue and Opus 1870?
Meringue is a name that starts arguments. It's not sweet. It's barely soft. What it IS: leather-forward, dry, smoky in the base, the kind of composition that makes you smell expensive without trying.French Avenue - Meringue
Penhaligon's wanted a flagship that felt like London in autumn, and the black pepper-citrus opening absolutely delivers that crisp energy. The frankincense in the heart is where things get.Opus 1870
