What do reviewers say about Annabel's Birthday Cake and L'Eau Papier?
This is pure celebration in a bottle. The lemon keeps things from becoming cloying, but make no mistake, Annabel's Birthday Cake is unapologetically sweet from start to finish.Annabel's Birthday Cake
Not a projection powerhouse. L'Eau Papier sits close, Intimate, an aromatic daydream for those who want scent rather than scent-ame. Think desk companion, not dinner-party statement.L'Eau Papier
