    What do reviewers say about Aqua Vitae and Radianza?

    Brief beauty is the whole point. Citrus that fades fast isn't a flaw, it's an invitation to reapply, to live in the moment. Summer fragrances should ask you to reach for them again.Aqua Vitae
    This is tuberose for people who think they hate tuberose. The sweetness is tempered by violet leaf's green bite, and the drydown, vanilla, benzoin, labdanum, keeps it from cloying.Radianza
