What do reviewers say about Black Orchid and Peacock Throne?
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 Taif rose dominates the heart of this fragrance. Everything before it builds anticipation, the orris powder, the pink pepper sparkle, waiting for that ruby-hearted bloom to take over.Peacock Throne
