What do reviewers say about Barénia and Absolue Storm & Roses?
Barénia is not trying to impress anyone. It starts bright and gets quietly confident, ending in a dry woody place that feels very much Hermès. If you want loud, look elsewhere.Barénia
This is the green rose. Not the pruned and perfect kind you'll find in a vase, but the one still rooted in soil after a summer downpour. Lancôme went bold with blackcurrant and rain accord.Absolue Storm & Roses
