Our Verdict - Iris de Syracuse Eau de Parfum
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.

Our Verdict - Notorious Eau de Parfum
Notorious is an absolute chameleon, equally likely to spark adoration as it is disdain. Forget the name, it's a classy, intriguing floral with a surprising gourmand twist that some find divine and others, well, just a bit off.
