    Leave it to my favorite Perfume Brand to design an innovative game like this. I only wish they would bring back the complete line of Pace Rabonne Calandre. It’s been gone 40 years. I can’t believe it. Sp many people all over the world loved their perfume, body lotion, powder, shower gel, bath oil and other products. I don’t understand why a company would stop making a perfume line so popular all over the world. None of their perfumes released since then can compare to Calandre. It’s time Paco Rabonne reintroduces Calandre back to the world. We miss you Calandre.
