This one sure delivers on the spice! At first I wasn't sure if I liked it, it was less floral than I was expecting. This actually makes my nose tickle when I apply it. It takes a good ten minutes fo...Read more

This was an amazing discovery for me. A wonderful member saw the post in which I said I'd just fallen for carnation. She sent me an RAOK to end all RAOKs -- a huge bottle of Santa Maria Novella Gara...Read more
