    What do reviewers say about Gentlewoman and Prelude to Love?

    For anyone who's wanted a cologne that doesn't flinch, this delivers. The almond and musk drydown keeps it from being just another fresh citrus. Bold in the old-school way, without smelling like it.Gentlewoman
    Clean enough to wear anywhere. But underneath, that creamy neroli knows something you haven't said yet. This is the scent of a first date that goes somewhere.Prelude to Love
