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
Cashmere is an abstract concept to translate into scent, and Rêve de Cashmere does it by keeping things light. The drydown feels like wearing a fine knit, subtle and comforting.Rêve de Cashmere
