What do reviewers say about L'Ether and De Profundis?
A discontinued gem from a brand that disappeared without fanfare. Olivia Giacobetti built something here that most houses wouldn't risk: a scent that asks you to lean in rather than announce yourself.L'Ether
De Profundis is not trying to make you happy. It opens in grief and stays there, then slowly accepts what it is. If chrysanthemum in combination with incense sounds like your idea of a good time,.De Profundis
