What do reviewers say about Durban Jane and Soie Malaquais?
It's not for those who want to announce themselves. This is quiet confidence. One reviewer called it 'the scent of a yoga instructor.' The sandalwood leans more fresh than creamy. It stays close.Durban Jane
This is a sophisticated, feminine scent that leans into contrast. The blackcurrant opening is assertive, but the silk and rose heart keeps it graceful.Soie Malaquais
