What do reviewers say about I Hate Rose and Dear Polly?
A rose for people who roll their eyes at rose. The rhubarb and bell pepper keep it from ever getting soft or predictable. This is what happens when someone who hates roses decides to make one worth.I Hate Rose
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
