    What do reviewers say about Symphonium Parfum and California Chocolate?

    The opening is aggressive in the best way, mandarin and chocolate collide with a presence that either grabs you or overwhelms. On the right skin, it's an accident of pleasure.Symphonium Parfum
    Some citrus-gourmand fragrances go bright on top and sweet on bottom, leaving little memorable in between. This one takes a different approach. The white cognac adds a warmth that shifts everything.California Chocolate
