Real talk
Vanilla-forward florals split opinions, you either want to bath in this or you find it too much. The orchid isn't subtle. Neither is the jasmine. But for someone who wants a fragrance that commits.Midnight Orchid 72
This is the scent you wear when you want to smell approachable yet put-tog ether. It's sweet without being immature, floral without being stuffy, and the patchouli in the drydown gives it just enough.La Vie Est Belle
