Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Iris Eau de Parfum
This is a fiercely divisive powder bomb, a sweet iris that smells like luxury make-up or baby wipes depending on who you ask. Prepare for monstrous longevity and projection too - it’s not for shrinking violets.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Iris Dragées Eau de Parfum
This discontinued gem has a dedicated following, often described as an ethereal, delicate iris with a sweet, powdery almond kiss. Whilst some find it too subtle, fans adore its refined charm and are desperate to secure a bottle. It's truly a love-or-hate it situation, frequently compared to more affordable options, yet championed for its unique, understated beauty.
