What do reviewers say about Sensual Jil and Exquise Tentation?
Most Jil Sander fragrances whisper. This one doesn't apologize for wanting attention. The blackberry-lavender opening is bright enough to turn heads, but the vanilla drydown is the real reason to.Sensual Jil
There's a version of vanilla that just sits there, sweet for the sake of it. Dorothée Piot chose differently. Praline and bitter almond give this something to say, nutty, almost edible.Exquise Tentation
