What do reviewers say about Pure Instinct and Soirée Parisienne?
This one polarizes on the pineapple. Sweet, almost confectionery, right at the front, and that's either the hook or the dealbreaker. If you want a fragrance that announces itself unapologetically.Pure Instinct
The saffron-pink pepper duo either hooks you or doesn't. No middle ground there. For those who stay: a mossy, cedar drydown that feels less like perfume and more like the hour before dinner.Soirée Parisienne
