    What do reviewers say about Aqua Allegoria Pivoine Magnifica and Vaara?

    This is the fragrance that makes people stop and ask about flowers. Not perfume, flowers. The peony doesn't whisper; it arrives with the confidence of someone who knows exactly what they're wearing.Aqua Allegoria Pivoine Magnifica
    Vaara is a polished, approachable rose that avoids both the classical and the avant-garde. The quince and saffron give it a subtle tartness, but ultimately this is a well-mannered, genteel fragrance.Vaara
