Pros & Cons
- ✅ one of the best Iris of all perfumery. An elegant, nocturnal perfume, but much easier to use than the Homme Intense or Homme Parfum.
- ✅ This is pure class. PURE. CLASS. Did you hear me? The iris top note is something of the most elegant pieces of matter to exist.
- ✅ The 2005 Dior Homme by Olivier Polge was a game-changer. At a time when fresh aquatics and spicy woods dominated men’s fragrance counters, this one arrived with an unapologetic burst of iris — powdery, creamy, and quietly sensual.
- ✅ one of the best Iris of all perfumery. An elegant, nocturnal perfume, but much easier to use than the Homme Intense or Homme Parfum. ... 10/10 Fragrance
- ✅ The 2005 Dior Homme by Olivier Polge was a game-changer. ... A true masterpiece in modern men’s perfumery — and still one of the finest designer iris scents ever created.
- ❌ The only problem with this perfume is the performance. Within 2-ish hours after spraying, it becomes undetectable while doing your daily activities, but remains a skin-scent for about 7.
- ❌ Drawbacks: The sillage is maximum intimate, longevity is 1-2 hours.
- ❌ it leans a tad too sweet for my taste and may not suit younger men.
