What do reviewers say about Folie Douce and Love Mimosa?
This is the powder puff that doesn't try too hard. Sweet, yes. Fruity from the blackcurrant. But the bay leaf and iris keep it interesting, a little green, a little dry.Folie Douce
Love Mimosa is Amouage playing restrained, which still means assertive. The Mimosa here feels like pressed flowers in a book rather than a field in bloom, with the Orris and Heliotrope adding vintage.Love Mimosa
