What do reviewers say about Black Orchid and Tartufo?
Black Orchid isn't a fragrance, it's a confrontation. The truffle opening is strange, almost jarring. Then the florals arrive, heavy and rich. The kind of scent people have strong opinions about.Black Orchid
The animalic note divides opinion, some find it confrontational, others find it magnetic. Paired with the powdery violet heart, it creates something that doesn't announce itself.Tartufo
