What do reviewers say about Blanc Violette and Rouge Assassin?
Some will call it obsessive. Others call it coherent, violet in the top, the heart, and the base. The powdery iris and tropical ylang-ylang add dimension, but violet never fully leaves the room.Blanc Violette
This fragrance is for someone who already knows what she wants. Rouge Assassin doesn't fill a room, it marks its territory quietly, intimately, on skin.Rouge Assassin
