What do reviewers say about Ginza and Crystal Noir?
Some people want a fragrance that enters the room first. Ginza is for the rest of us. Bright, feminine, and unapologetically pretty, it earns attention by being impossible to dismiss.Ginza
Crystal Noir is not subtle and it knows it. The pepper and ginger opening is unapologetically assertive, but the coconut gardenia heart is where it wins people over.Crystal Noir
