What does 14.1 Cuir d'Iris smell like?

It opens with bergamot and cardamom, then moves into cedar, black iris barbata and patchouli, with amber and leather underneath. The floral side stays a powdery iris, while the woody and oriental accords ground it in a dry, slightly animalic base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening, leisure and night out lead the occasions. Most voters read it as masculine. Marc Gebauer Air Tiger and Câline Divine Hero have a close profile.
