About

Iris Poudre opens with a bright, almost waxy floral aldehyde burst, accented by juicy orange and a touch of spicy carnation. This quickly settles into a sophisticated heart where lily of the valley and subtle violet underpin a creamy, powdery iris that dominates. The dry-down is magnificent, revealing elegant sandalwood, a hint of amber, and a clean, expensive musk. It's an elevated floral woody composition, undeniably chic with a classic powdery finish.
