What do reviewers say about Violetta and Lipstick Rose?
Violetta doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. No surprise drydown, no twist at the end. Just violet, powdery and present, with the woody warmth to ground it.Violetta
Lipstick Rose doesn't smell like a rose. It smells like the powder puff lifted to the face, the lipstick dragged across the lip, the moment before the mirror opens its light.Lipstick Rose
