I’ve had this perfume in my collection since its launch in 2007 and I think it’s having a bit of a revival. You can find this at discounters, but also at almost any department store.
I always think of powder when I think of iris perfumes, but this one is not very powdery at all. It’s actually got a beautiful neroli top note that is addictive and makes me want to keep spraying this perfume to get more of that top note. It brings to mind the perfect summer day, sitting in the sunshine and drinking a cold orange San Pelligrino where the fizz tickles the tip of your nose. That’s what these top notes make me think of, so you can see why I love this perfume for cooler days.
The perfume is grounded by incense and benzoin. If you’ve smelled Prada Candy’s benzoin base, then you’ll recognize the same facets in this perfume but because it’s not as sweet because of everything else that’s going on.
Perfect for spring or cooler summer days, and maybe some of the nicest minimalistic packaging there is. A hefty bottle of this is definitely worth it because it seems to wear lightly and a few sprays are needed to create that scent bubble.
