Wardrobe Staples...
I have a very full wardrobe and actually for every occasion something suitable to dress. And yet every day I stand in front of it again and have the feeling that today simply nothing suits my mood. It's to milk mice.
But wait! I still have one trump...

A love story.
Already at the first sniff Eau des Sens was a revelation for me and I was gone and gone. I couldn't get my nose off my wrist for the rest of the day.
Balm for nose and soul in my case - and the beginning of a great love.
A fragrance that is fresh and spicy;...
