    Real talk

    Affordable and surprisingly well-blended, Dark Emerald does not pretend to be anything other than a pleasant fruity-floral with a sweet drydown. The pear-almond opening is playful, but it morphs.Dark Emerald
    This is the scent you wear when you want to smell approachable yet put-tog ether. It's sweet without being immature, floral without being stuffy, and the patchouli in the drydown gives it just enough.La Vie Est Belle
