What do reviewers say about La Belle Helene and Teia?
Bertrand Duchaufour built a chypre around the most elegant pear note in contemporary perfumery, then let osmanthus do the heavy lifting. The people who adore this one don't want to smell like.La Belle Helene
Warm vanilla over leather with an ambergris kick. Not everyone wants that salt in their sweetness, but for those who do, this is the full package, eight hours of close, warm.Teia
