New Charlotte’s Magic Water Cream from Charlotte Tilbury Skincare

Fig Perfumes in My Collection
The new #Dioriviera beside #Philosykos edt. Really more than enough of the fig note for me, and I’m finding both of these to be similar. The Dior fig feels rounder and warmer, the Diptyque more fruity. But they’re both green and summery and wearable.
