What do reviewers say about Flor de Maio and Carioca?
A spring fragrance that actually smells like spring. The carrot seed adds something unexpected, a slight green-earth quality that stops the florals from going head-to-toe pretty.Flor de Maio
Carioca is a clean, pretty fragrance that hits above its price point. The Freesia and Lily of the Valley heart keeps things softly feminine, while the Musk and Sandalwood drydown adds just enough.Carioca
