    What do reviewers say about L'Instant de Guerlain and Storia?

    Maurice Roucel built L'Instant de Guerlain around magnolia as the spine, and it works. The floral heart is substantial but never heavy, and the honey-vanilla base gives it enough warmth to wear.L'Instant de Guerlain
    This is the one for people who think they don't like vanilla. Storia's version is restrained, almost secretive, buried under powdery florals, held close by musk.Storia
