In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

John Galliano Parlez-Moi d'Amour is an unconventional fruity floral eau de toilette that trades typical sweet vanilla for tart fruit and crisp green woods. The scent opens with a sharp burst of wild blueberry, fresh ginger root, and sparkling bergamot peel. It grabs your attention fast. Give it five minutes to settle …

Reviews →

Andrea Maack Flux pairs crisp mountain mint with sweet wild blueberry before sinking into dense conifer woods. It captures the damp, atmospheric chill of a northern forest after the year's first frost. This unisex scent suits adventurous noses looking for a fruity woody profile that avoids typical sugary paths.
