What do reviewers say about Duchessa and Perpetual?
If you want a fragrance that smells like a Venetian palazzo in autumn, this is it. Black cherry and clove create a cozy, opulent feel, but the iris in the drydown keeps it from being overly sweet.Duchessa
Sweet enough to feel like an edible treat, warm enough to wrap around you in cooler air. It's not shouting for attention, it's the kind of presence you notice when someone leans in close.Perpetual
