What do reviewers say about L'Eau Neuve and Lemon Sorbet?
This is for someone who wants fresh without soapy, green without sharp, and woody without heavy. The lavender keeps it from going full cleanser, the herbs keep it from going full citrus.L'Eau Neuve
The lemon opens loud and a little aggressive, that screechy brightness some people flag. But here's the thing: it doesn't stay. The vanilla catches it, softens it.Lemon Sorbet
