What do reviewers say about Under My Skin and Memory Motel?
Bianchi built this around castoreum and leather but she tempered them, eliminated the sweet animalics that felt too easy. The carnation iris leather that remains is the harder choice, and it asks.Under My Skin
Tobacco-forward, smoky, warm and enveloping. That bergamot in the opening provides the only brightness before the composition settles into its tobacco-led heart.Memory Motel
