I grabbed this blindly at the perfumeries for the iris, my signature note, and the name A l’Iris piqued my curiosity more than the classics. It’s affordable and fresh at the outset, with pear, muguet, and smoky vetiver, though the bergamot barely makes an appearance. It’s delicate and lovely, albeit slightly sticky. For those who claim the trail is enormous, try a vintage Kouros or a Rasasi Dhanal to understand what a truly expansive sillage is like; this clings to the skin and fades quickly, so I see it as an aromatic caress before bed or for intimate dates. The iris is pale, almost transparent, and a bit powdery, less intense than I expected, but the blend of synthetic pear and sweet florals is interesting and idiosyncratic. A pleasant fragrance that could have been superior without that iris as the star, but I’ll certainly use it anyway.
