    What do reviewers say about Cruz del Sur II and Sunshine Woman?

    The name Southern Cross promises a voyage, and this fragrance delivers one. Tropical sweetness upfront, yes, but the blackcurrant and violet leaf heart prevents it from becoming a beach candle.Cruz del Sur II
    It's named Sunshine Woman and means it. Not the shallow kind of sweet that evaporates. Magnolia and jasmine follow, adding cream and a hint of green freshness.Sunshine Woman
