Decent cedar and iris
The opening of Cèdre & Iris Soyeux is such a nice surprise: flour-y woods with a touch of camphor and red berry fruitiness which recalls quite well the nuances that I perceive in Atlas cedar and Virginia cedar essential oils.
Initially, I can't really discern the iris. But as the cedar gradually mellows, the rooty woody nuance of iris becomes more apparent, but never overwhelms the whole composition. The flour-y wood of cedar eventually leaves its place to the clean iris, with just a tiny bit of slightly balsamic violet lipstick, quite subtle and elegant as a skin scent.
The sillage is initially moderate, but quickly drops close to the skin. The longevity is around 7 hours on me.
Although it might not be as striking as other more expensive iris or cedar fragrances, Cèdre & Iris Soyeux is very decent at this price point. Moreover, I find that it showcases certains aspects of cedar quite well. If you happen to be looking for an affordable, elegant and comfortable woody iris fragrance, I'd definitely recommend giving it a try.
