What do reviewers say about So Blue and French Riviera?
The blue bottle promises something bold. What it delivers is better described as elegant, rose and violet keeping the citrus grounded, the vanilla adding just enough warmth to keep it from feeling.So Blue
It's an authenticated vacation. Not a simulation, the salt and tiare make sure of that. The citrus opening is immediately transportive, bright enough to lift the spirits without veering into harsh.French Riviera
