In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Reviews →

Viorica Cosmetics ETHERIUM #1 is a refreshing floral aquatic option built for hot summer days. The scent opens with a bright citrus blast of tangerine and sage before settling into a salty white pear and ambergris core. It provides a clean, breezy skin scent that works well for casual afternoon wear.
