    What do reviewers say about Bal à Versailles and Magie?

    The civet is not subtle. Neither is the leather, the resin, or the fact that this was made in 1962 by someone who didn't ask permission. If the warm, golden, multilayered character calls to you.Bal à Versailles
    This is powdery without being dusty, warm without being heavy. The jasmine doesn't shriek, it hums. If you've avoided classic florals because they felt like your grandmother's vanity.Magie
