    What do reviewers say about Chamade and Crescendo?

    This is the green floral that Guerlain built its reputation on. Dense hyacinth, blackcurrant oil, galbanum, it smells like a perfumer who decided to make a point.Chamade
    Tuberose with smoke in its blood. The aldehydes fade, but incense stays. Strong sillage, long hours. This isn't polite florals, it's something that means it.Crescendo
