What do reviewers say about Plum de Velours and Orchid Leather?
Iris and plum is an old perfumery tension, but here the plum goes candied, not fresh. The iris keeps it cool while the tobacco keeps it warm. That's the move.Plum de Velours
It's sweet. Unapologetically so. The plum and vanilla don't whisper, they lean in. The frankincense is a quiet anchor, pulling the sweetness back from the edge of dessert.Orchid Leather
