What do reviewers say about Mallow and Florentina?
Mallow walks the line between nostalgic and now. The 90s powder-and-candy DNA is unmistakable, but Anne-Sophie Behaghel smoothed out anything that might read dated.Mallow
The iris in here isn't a cameo. It's the whole show, that dusty, floral root that turns powdery the moment it hits your skin. Paired with bitter almond and a vanilla warmth underneath.Florentina
