    Real talk

    The EDT lives on raspberry. Sweet, juicy, approachable. The EDP buries the fruit under something altogether more interesting. If the original left you cold, this darker iteration might be the one.Hot Couture
    Not every fragrance needs to fill the room. This one is for people who've already been noticed. The cranberry-licorice heart keeps it interesting long after the citrus fades.Charmes Secrets: Douce Caresse
