    What do reviewers say about Symbol Eau de Parfum and Michael?

    Tuberose that doesn't flinch. Jasmine sambac with real backbone. This is white floral for people who want the flower, not the apology. Powder and musk hold it close, never loud, always certain.Symbol Eau de Parfum
    Tuberose this assertive isn't for the cautious. If that's your thing, and it should be, you'll find something here that works: lasting power, warmth that rewards proximity.Michael
