What do reviewers say about Pegasus and Perseus?
Parfums de Marly makes fragrances that arrive before you do. Pegasus is no exception, the sweetness is confident, not pandering. If you want something that whispers, look elsewhere.Pegasus
Close enough to Pegasus that you'll forget why it matters. Perseus doesn't try to one-up the original, it just makes you wonder why the original costs that much.Perseus
