What do reviewers say about Ambre Narguilé and Red Ginger?
Jean-Claude Ellena stripped away the pretension and delivered something almost dangerously easy to wear. Its cinnamon spice keeps the sweetness from feeling juvenile.Ambre Narguilé
It does something unusual in the heart, the rose doesn't wait its turn, it arrives alongside the spice and they decide to stay together. Warm without heat. Soft without fading.Red Ginger
