Real talk
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
Violet and gardenia disagree at first, then agree to differ, for hours. Balalaika doesn't shout. It lingers. The kind of fragrance that makes people lean in rather than step back.Balalaika
