What does Iris Romantique smell like?

Its longevity is rated as moderate, though the small number of votes means this is only a rough guide. It is described as a feminine perfume, and there are not enough votes to say anything about its sillage, seasons or occasions.

Bergamot and clementine give it a bright opening. Rose, violet and iris form a floral, powdery heart. Woods, vanilla and musk sit underneath, adding a woody sweetness. The synthetic accord lends a clean, smooth feel. Narciso Rodriguez Essence and Shiseido Zen Essence have a close profile.
