What do reviewers say about Reflets d'Ambre and Grand Soiree?
Amber fragrances often feel like a commitment to heaviness. Reflets d'Ambre is the exception that confirms the rule, luminous and refined, like light passing through amber rather than being trapped.Reflets d'Ambre
Keiko Mecheri doesn't do subtle for subtlety's sake. Grand Soiree's incense-and-patchouli heart wears powdery, not dirty. If you've been burned by overly heavy orientals.Grand Soiree
