Prada Infusion d'Iris: A Review
Let me start by admitting that I’m not a huge iris fan. I like iris focused fragrances but I don’t usually love them. I have Serge Lutens Iris Silver Mist because there is something addictive about that cold, metallic, damp scent, but Iris Silver Mist is an anomaly for me.
I've tried to like this one, but sadly, it's a scrubber on me. I'm not a huge fan of the usual iris scents (you describe their effect very well), and I was hoping this one would be different. Well, it is, but not in a way I can wear. On me it goes strident. Oh well....
ReplyDeleteYeah, iris is a tough note. It seems to be either a love or hate scent. I can easily imagine Prada's iris going strident on you. When I asked my husband to sniff it, he said "it smells like alcohol, Tanqueray gin."
ReplyDeleteLOL!
ReplyDeleteYes, he's right. And I prefer Bombay Sapphire... ;-)
I'm not giving up on iris - somewhere out there is an iris scent that will like me. I want to believe!
