What do reviewers say about Indochine 25 and Sweet Taboo?
Quiet warmth. Spice, honey, benzoin doing what they do best. Moderate sillage that stays close. Not for those who need to announce themselves.Indochine 25
Not a safe choice. Not trying to be. Sweet Taboo is for the hour when rules soften, when the spice on your wrist is the only chaperone. Cardamom, cinnamon, cocoa, coffee. It earns its name.Sweet Taboo
