What does Iris Ardent smell like?

It opens green and fresh with juniper, angelica, mandarin orange and cypress. In the heart, iris and violet leaf bring a powdery floral note, with frankincense and pepper adding spice. The base of vetiver, leather, musk and amber leaves it woody, earthy and leathery, with a slightly sweet warmth.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so treat these ratings with caution. It reads as neither masculine nor feminine. Zara LTH/03 Know the Leather and Tom Ford Violet Blonde have a close profile.
