What does Iris Macchiato smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick it for leisure, nights out and evenings, with fewer choosing it for daytime or the office.

Iris and espresso lead the top. In the heart, iris, tonka bean and vanilla sweeten and soften the scent. The base of patchouli, benzoin, sandalwood and musk puts an earthy, slightly animal depth under the powdery, creamy character, while the spicy and oriental touches stay in the background.
