What do reviewers say about Cacti and Soie Malaquais?
This one divides on the powdery drydown, heliotrope turns it soft, almost vintage. But that's the point. Cacti isn't trying to fill a room. It is a personal, meditative green.Cacti
This is a sophisticated, feminine scent that leans into contrast. The blackcurrant opening is assertive, but the silk and rose heart keeps it graceful.Soie Malaquais
