What do reviewers say about Possibilities and Lily Absolu?
This is a rose done the La Perla way: Intimate, close to the skin, never shouty. The cashmere and Akigalawood base is the real story here, giving the florals somewhere soft and warm to land without.Possibilities
This is a lily that didn't apologize for taking up space. Tropical jasmine, ylang-ylang, and osmanthus load the heart until it's almost too much, then the vanilla and musk pull it back to something.Lily Absolu
