What does Iris Palladium (2024) smell like?

The top notes of cardamom, lavender and coriander give a spicy, fresh start. In the heart, violet, iris and mugwort turn it floral and powdery. The base of gaiac wood, sandalwood, benzoin and vanilla sweetens it and settles it into a creamy, woody finish.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good. Fall is the most-picked season, with spring and winter close behind. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Most voters read it as feminine or modern, though a fair share call it masculine. Câline Infinite Navy and Hema Amber Cedarwood have a close profile.
