What do reviewers say about Very Valentino and Santal Volcanique?
The powdery violet heart is what people either fall for or step back from. If you've been looking for something that smells like Italian couture translated into scent, not aggressive, not sweet.Very Valentino
The sandalwood isn't a base note here, it's the whole point. Richard Ibanez built this around a creamy, almost lactonic woodiness that draws you back for another impression.Santal Volcanique
