What do reviewers say about Something Blue and Chunga?
Soft white florals walk a fine line between fresh and boring. Something Blue dodges it, the Stephanotis is the tell. Not gardenia, not jasmine. A real flower from Oscar de la Renta's actual garden in.Something Blue
The aldehydes here don't whisper. They're assertive, powdery, and utterly uninterested in being polite. That's the whole point, and once you understand it, you won't want it any other way.Chunga
