Which Should You Buy?
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.
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.

Occasions
Its potent longevity and sillage mean a light hand is needed, making it less ideal for enclosed office spaces or formal events. However, its clean, comforting profile makes it perfect for casual wear, especially at home, and it's even described as a 'perfect after-gym perfume' by some.
