What do reviewers say about Ume and Hypnotic Poison?
If you've ever thought Japanese floral meant quiet and fleeting, Ume will make you reconsider. The plum isn't a footnote, it's the protagonist. Wisteria and osmanthus give it softness.Ume
Hypnotic Poison doesn't play it safe. The coconut and almond give it real weight, real warmth. It's sweet, yes, but with a density that borders on something you could almost eat.Hypnotic Poison
