What do reviewers say about La Prima and Memoir Woman?
La Prima is opulent. The white florals are generous, the fur accord is distinctive, and the bourbon vanilla grounds everything in warmth. Depending on your skin chemistry.La Prima
Memoir Woman is uncompromising. The absinthe and clove make it aggressive at first, and the oakmoss drydown is unapologetically vintage. This is not a safe blind buy.Memoir Woman
