    What do reviewers say about Lua and Sicily?

    The melon note here isn't sweet in the usual way, it's watery, almost cold, which makes the powdery iris and warm vanilla base feel like a deliberate contrast. Some call it timeless.Lua
    The aldehydes set Sicily apart, that vintage Chanel N°5 DNA running through a 2003 release. Not every contemporary fragrance wears its history this openly.Sicily
