Nicky Larson Dvdrip Review

Directed by and starring Philippe Lacheau, the film follows the legendary private investigator and "sweeper" Nicky Larson. Along with his partner Laura (played by Élodie Fontan), Nicky is hired to protect the "Cupid’s Perfume," a scent that makes anyone who wears it irresistible.
