    What do reviewers say about X. Lou and Lola?

    Floral fruity done right, sweet enough to feel inviting, with enough pink pepper and nutmeg to keep it from going one-note. It's the fragrance equivalent of someone who's effortlessly put-together.X. Lou
    Here's the thing about Lola: the opening is unapologetically sweet. Pink pepper and grapefruit sound sharp on paper, but on skin they play into the fruit rather than against it.Lola
