What do reviewers say about French Macaroons and Macarons?
This is sweet. Unapologetically, almost confrontationally sweet. If you gravitate toward complex woods and resins, this will feel like a sugar rush. But for those who want a scent that smells like.French Macaroons
Cherry in this fragrance stays tart, keeps its shape, and plays against marzipan like they were always meant to be together. The two notes balance each other perfectly.Macarons
