What do reviewers say about Giò and Narcotic?
The white florals here are far from polite. Tuberose and gardenia make their presence known with a boldness that is neither aggressive nor vulgar. They bring a certain directness that distinguishes.Giò
Narcotic announces itself before you've decided if you want it to. The tuberose doesn't ask permission. But nobody ignores it.Narcotic
Good to know
