What do reviewers say about Dark Purple and Rouge Privé?
Most fruity-florals play it safe. Dark Purple doesn't, plum and orange open bright, but the dark rose and patchouli pull the whole thing somewhere deeper.Dark Purple
Not a rose that fades into the background. Rouge Privé opens with Damask rose and bergamot, builds into a warm benzoin drydown. Lasts 8-10 hours, close, confident, unapologetically sweet.Rouge Privé
