What do reviewers say about 1979 New Wave and L'Oblìo?
Here's the thing about 1979 New Wave: it projects like a secret. The mint is crisp, the iris is powder-soft, and it stays close for a solid 6 to 8 hours. Clean enough for the office.1979 New Wave
L'Oblìo is powdery-woody and quietly commanding, the kind of fragrance that asks you to lean in. The sillage stays moderate, close to the skin rather than filling a room.L'Oblìo
