    What do reviewers say about Indigo and Dear Polly?

    Indigo occupies a particular space, neither purely fresh nor distinctly warm. The fig-bergamot opening is undeniably pretty, but it is the tea heart that gives this fragrance its point of view.Indigo
    Dear Polly is not trying to be loud or performative. It is a composed, well-mannered fragrance that rewards attention rather than demanding it. The black tea heart is the quiet star here.Dear Polly
