What do reviewers say about Bengale Rouge and Chocolat Irisé?
This is the fragrance for someone who's done explaining themselves. Bengale Rouge announces, settles, and remains long after you've forgotten you put it on.Bengale Rouge
Most chocolate fragrances go heavy immediately. Chocolat Irisé doesn't. The citrus opening is a genuine surprise, and then it hands off to something richer, slower.Chocolat Irisé
