What do reviewers say about First Impression and Varna?
This is the fragrance for someone who's done apologizing for wanting to smell good. The citrus doesn't whisper, it arrives. But the drydown knows when to step back.First Impression
The violet-sage heart is the whole point. Violet gives it that powdery, almost nostalgic softness that usually signals something delicate. Then sage arrives with its green.Varna
Good to know
