    What do reviewers say about Une Folie de Rose and Shocking?

    Some rose fragrances feel like looking at flowers through a window. This one feels like walking through a garden at dusk, wet stems, green air, the mineral dark of oakmoss underneath. Not safe.Une Folie de Rose
    Shocking is not a polite fragrance. The aldehydes hit sharp and metallic, the animalic richness sits heavy in the base, and the honeyed florals feel almost decadent.Shocking
