What do reviewers say about Heroin and Eros?
This is not a fragrance that whispers. The opening announces itself with absinthe's medicinal bite and almond's sweetNutty punch, a combination that either hooks you immediately or makes you pause.Heroin
Built for the Friday night you actually dressed up for. Sweet, sure, but there's a green sharpness underneath that keeps it from going soft. The vanilla is loud and unapologetic.Eros
