What do reviewers say about Charlie Sunshine and La Vie Est Belle?
This is summer in a bottle. Not the idea of summer, the actual feeling of stepping outside and the sun hits your face. Bright, unapologetic, and confident enough to wear on a Tuesday.Charlie Sunshine
This is the scent you wear when you want to smell approachable yet put-tog ether. It's sweet without being immature, floral without being stuffy, and the patchouli in the drydown gives it just enough.La Vie Est Belle
