Real talk
Calandre's aldehydic lift is the point, not a side effect. Bergamot keeps it from going static on wool, bright enough for someone who thinks No.5 is too much. The rose heart is what earns the vote.Calandre
Some fragrances want to be liked. Couture wants to be remembered. The aldehydes give it a slightly vintage edge, not retro, but assured. A bit formal. If that sounds like a compliment, it is.Couture
