What do reviewers say about Menthe Fraiche and Buongiorno?
This is mint done the way mint should be, not toothpaste, not gum, not the synthetic stuff that floods the category. It's green and alive, slightly bitter in the best way.Menthe Fraiche
The mint and basil opening hits with real intention, not a footnote, not a passing fancy. This is the fragrance for someone who knows what they want and reached for it before breakfast. Refined, yes.Buongiorno
