What does Shiu 25 smell like?

The notes read together rather than unfolding in layers. Iris sets a powdery, floral base, frankincense adds a resinous, smoky warmth, and camphor wood brings a dry, woody, earthy tone. The result feels cool and dry rather than sweet, with only a light oriental edge.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though few people have voted on this. Voters pick it most for leisure and business, with evening and night out following behind. Masculine, modern and feminine votes sit close together, so it reads as in between rather than leaning to one side.
