What do reviewers say about Plaisir de Frederic and Crystal Noir?
This is not a fragrance that shouts. Plaisir de Frederic earns its name through restraint, offering pleasure in small, deliberate doses rather than a full-frontal assault on the senses.Plaisir de Frederic
Crystal Noir is not subtle and it knows it. The pepper and ginger opening is unapologetically assertive, but the coconut gardenia heart is where it wins people over.Crystal Noir
