Pros & Cons

  • Timeless and elegant scent profile
  • High-quality iris and floral blend
  • Balanced between vintage and modern
  • Elegant powdery floral that doesn't age
  • Outlasts a full workday on most skin
  • Iris and vanilla pairing is distinctive
  • Smooth citrus opening, no harshness
  • Ylang-ylang adds a creamy warmth that lifts the iris
  • May feel 'too classic' for younger users
  • Not very bold or attention-grabbing
  • Powdery note may not suit everyone
  • Star anise opening divides opinion, sharp licorice edge
  • Moderate sillage: close to skin, not across the room
  • Drydown turns powdery, which isn't for everyone
  • May feel too soft if you prefer projection-heavy scents
  • Anise-heavy opening not for those who want immediate sweetness
