What do reviewers say about Pearl Grey and Malabah?
Pearl Grey is Earl Grey's quiet confidence, amplified. The lavender keeps it from being precious. The milk keeps it from being sharp. Comfortable enough to wear daily.Pearl Grey
Penhaligon's has a way with restraint, and Malabah is proof. Not the loudest Oriental in the room, the one that stays after everyone else has left. Earl Grey and coriander open the conversation.Malabah
