Top Notes: Fiery Pomegranate, Rare French Peach, Luminous Apple Mid Notes: Red Peony, Night Marigold, Red Osmanthus Dry Notes: Rich Vanilla Rum, Velvety Marshmallow, Oak Wood edited to ask... does anyone know if they are having any kind of sale.. i noticed on their homepage, it said to check their Facebook page, for coupons, savings, ect. but i am not a Facebook member...
