Iris des Champs (Eau de Parfum)

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, so it stays close to the skin rather than leaving a heavy trail. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall a close third and winter well behind. Daily wear, business and leisure lead the occasions. Voters most often call it feminine, then classic.

It opens with pink pepper, bergamot and lily of the valley, a fresh and slightly green start. In the heart, rose absolute, jasmine sambac absolute, orris absolute and orris butter form the powdery floral core, with ylang-ylang softening it. The base of vanilla, sandalwood, amberwood and musk leaves a sweet, creamy, lightly woody finish.
