    What do reviewers say about Himitsu Violets and Louve?

    Some violets are powdery grandmothers. Himitsu is the cool, wistful one, the violet for someone who reads poetry and means it. The suede keeps it honest.Himitsu Violets
    Sweet enough to comfort, bitter enough to intrigue, Louve doesn't resolve the tension, it leans into it. The she-wolf stays through the long nights and the cold.Louve
