What do reviewers say about Heat Wave and Bain De Midi?
Heat Wave is the rare tropical that doesn't attack you with mango and coconut sunscreen. It arrives at dusk, when the island exhales. The night flowers are its real story.Heat Wave
Bain de Midi does not pretend to be anything other than a warm-weather fragrance. If you want subtlety, look elsewhere. The coconut and white florals are upfront, creamy, and unmistakably tropical.Bain De Midi
