What do reviewers say about French Lilac and Lilac Path?
Some people want a fragrance to perform. Others just want to smell like the thing they love most. French Lilac is for the second kind. It's lilac without apology, not an interpretation.French Lilac
This is the fragrance for people who think 'lilac' means 'fresh and feminine' and then smell it for the first time. Realistic, cool-green, spring garden lilac. Not everyone wants that.Lilac Path
