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
