Ikon

by Frank Voelkl

Zirh Ikon is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Frank Voelkl. Ikon opens with Artemisia, Ginger, Cardamom, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Orris, Labdanum, Clove, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Patchouli, Cedar, and Amber. Zirh's Ikon carries a Favourite verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This used to be an absolute smash, a real dark horse offering luxury on a shoestring. Now? It's a genuine postcode lottery, with dodgy reformulated batches making it a total gamble. Proceed with caution - the original is a stunner, the new stuff is often rubbish.

Its warm, spicy, and smoky accords lend themselves well to evening wear and cooler climates, making it suitable for dates and formal events. While some find it office-friendly due to its moderate projection in certain formulations, others report it as too bold for daily wear, particularly if you land an original bottle.

About

Zirh Ikon leads with a sharp, invigorating burst of cardamom, ginger, and lemon before settling into a rich, spicy heart of clove and warm cinnamon. The darkness truly emerges as it dries down, enveloped in smoky incense and amber, underpinned by earthy vetiver and cedar. It's a journey from zesty brightness to a profound, woody depth, with subtle hints of sweetness along the way.
