    What do reviewers say about Etéreo and Paragon?

    Some fragrances shout. This one speaks clearly and then lets the sillage do the quiet work, a few hours on skin, never more than arm's length away. Exactly right for someone who's done apologizing.Etéreo
    If you want safe, look elsewhere. Paragon hits hard from the first spray and never apologizes for it. That said, the drydown on skin is genuinely beautiful.Paragon
