CreamyWhat does Poudre d'Iris smell like?
It opens with neroli and angelica, which add a light floral brightness. In the heart, almond blossom, heliotrope and iris powder create a soft, powdery feel. The base of white musk, almond and sandalwood settles the scent into a creamy, sweet finish, with the spicy accord staying in the background.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters recommend spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Most voters read it as feminine, though it is presented as unisex. Jimmy Choo Iris Crush and Memo Paris Siwa (2018) have a close profile.
