Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Iris des Champs Eau de Parfum
This is a polarising take on iris. Some find it a beautifully blended, creamy, and sophisticated floral; others recoil from what they perceive as a screechy, soapy mess. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

Our Verdict - Talco Extrait
This is Talco, plain and simple. If you're after a sophisticated take on baby powder, New Notes delivers exactly that. It's polarising, with some finding it a comforting, clean dream and others dismissing it as too literal and, frankly, overpriced for what it is.
