Which Should You Buy?
This is a clean, graceful iris that's universally loved for its soft, powdery charm. It won't shout, but it will captivate with its gentle elegance, even if its presence is fleeting for some.
A divisive scent, described by some as 'pointless' and others as 'luxury'. It's all about that makeup bag iris-violet opening. If you can get past that initial powder puff, you'll find a clean, musky sophistication that promises quality, even if the performance fails to deliver for some.
