Which Should You Buy?
A burst of watermelon and kiwi on a musky, ozonic base, L'Impératrice is an iconic fruity-aquatic that radiates fun, sunshine, and confidence. A staple for those craving easy, vibrant freshness.
This ozonic-aquatic lavender takes some getting used to. Many find it gorgeously fresh and relaxing, capturing the scent of summer in Provence perfectly. Others find the synthetic melon too much or the lavender too sharp, often comparing it to cleaning products.
