What does Romance d'Iris smell like?

It opens with bergamot and rice, a light and clean start. In the heart, violet and the two irises lead, while green and sweet accords soften the florals. The base of white musk and heliotrope leaves a creamy powderiness, and vetiver dries it down slightly.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen occasions. Voters mostly describe its character as feminine and modern.
