VERY SIMILAR TO B.ACAMPORA MUSC.
I got a sample of this and could not believe how close smells to the musc but for me is a little more floral and sweeter due to the jasmine and vanilla I got compliments wearing this oil the other day. Absolutely love for me and the perfume oil is in my wish list. unfortunately is so difficult to find this perfume line.The places I know that stock them is New York, Los Angeles and Naples.

Bewitching Iranzol
With the sense of smell, it can really be quite challenging sometimes: Through my knowledge of many wild plants, kitchen herbs, and a rather considerable spice repertoire in culinary use, along with decades of fragrance experience, I believed I knew and could recognize quite a bit, without considering myself a particularly gifted "nose," mind you.
And then there are always moments of doubt. I know this scent, but something is different, what is it?
I don’t want to embark on the testing process in the sense of "Today I was at Douglas and a saleswoman crossed my path..." no worries! Certainly no evaluation if the scent only rushed by for an hour and then had to be washed off due to urgent, medical needs and, of course, world-shaking and forum-public-needing complaints.
First: Twice while testing Bruno Acampora fragrances, I experienced what I had sometimes encountered before, where the initially favored scents faded, then turned back, and another one was preferred because it was surprising. A rollercoaster. I no longer trusted myself.
Iranzol starts strong, bitter - and with the realization that I know something from somewhere but cannot name it, which frustrates me: I can't figure it out. I first suspect something fennel-like, herbaceous, along with a bit of coriander that softens it, yet at the same time something disturbingly attractive and familiar-unknown dominates. Similarly, though friendlier, is the opening of "Black Orchid," and slowly it dawns on me what I remember: mushrooms. Many mushrooms have a distinct smell, almost fatty when they are fresh and being cleaned, and then when soaking the dried specimens in water, you can experience it again; it doesn’t smell sweet, but rather has a truly peculiar spiciness that can define or nuance a sauce.
This completely unappealing, utterly unfamiliar top note in a perfume is intriguing in both senses of the word. It is bold to not simply rely on a beautiful allure in the top note but to irritate or even shock testers. I was extraordinarily intrigued to find out what lay behind the riddle.
The scent changes only slowly in a softer direction. I sense floral notes rather than being able to define them until the patchouli reveals itself. Very smooth and not from the cellar region. Beautiful, linden-leaf velvety, but now I would wish for a bit of that mushroom-like galbanum to return. That means what was very novel and highly concentrated in a scent at the beginning could linger more clearly later. As a curve progression, I would compare it to an immediately high peak that then quickly subsides and remains in an almost constant, only slowly falling line, but indeed also loses tension.
Iranzol - for me a fragrance experience, a fragrance course - with an open ending. I like it, the confounder, from which a drop is enough to puzzle, to marvel, to learn to smell. Whether I would buy it, I do not yet know, because the balance does not completely satisfy me.

Iranzol is Galbanum, a fragrance development protocol
Inranzol is initially a puzzling scent for me. Immediately strange green, mossy, mushroom-like and then oddly sharp, slightly sour-sharp like tamarind paste, an unfamiliar smell starts "Iranzol." I briefly smell something like jasmine, but zap, that impression is gone. I must have been mistaken. Perhaps I expected that, after all, these floral scents were abundantly present in the previously tested Acampora fragrances,
However, this scent burns on my nasal mucosa, a little on my lips and gives a cool burning sensation on my gums and at the tip of my tongue, I even have to sneeze. However, I never have hay fever, fortunately.
Such a precious essence with such a scent?
I give the fragrance time to develop, and it remains. Bitter, herbal is "Iranzol" as well. The mossy mushroom note disappears. My fear that this precious drop might be spoiled also fades.
I wait further, do other things, read the comments of the users I subscribe to here.
The scent remains slightly cool-burning as described.
I look up "Iranzol" in the Italian dictionary. It doesn't exist, but "iranico," which means "Iranian," thus "Persian." I don't associate this with the scent.
In the meantime, I have called up the pyramid for the fragrance; no one has written a comment yet. Too bad, now I have to write something.
I check my ingredient notes for galbanum: "Resin of an umbelliferous plant, gum, sharp burning" I have noted.
That's something, so "Iranzol" is for me.
But I also want to make sure, so I check Wikipedia.
There I read, among other things, that galbanum resin "Ferula erubescens" is an umbelliferous plant from Persia and the southern Aral Sea. From this, I read, a soft resin with a penetrating, unpleasant aromatic smell is obtained. 6% of the resin contains "Oleum Gatsam." Aha?
And then "galbanum resin has a sharp burning taste, slightly camphoraceous, so it says.
Well, that's how "Iranzol" smells, acts, and tastes too, because by now I also have the slightly bitter, sharp, and cool taste a bit in my mouth. The sillage is much stronger than I initially perceived. I feel it a little in my bronchi, as if I inhaled sharp menthol for a cold.
Now I have the explanation for the name: "Iranzol" could also mean it in German.
I smell, taste, and feel exactly what is described in Wikipedia.
Good, but what about the other ingredients after 4 hours?
The smell of galbanum resin seems to intensify, that’s my impression, more and more.
I have now gotten used to it and no longer find it so unpleasant. I suspect that the patchouli scent and the vanilla have spread a little. Jasmine had already passed by at the beginning. And rose, well, against such a strong resin smell, it has no chance. If rose scent were to come along with the galbanum smell, no, that would be at best disturbing to disgusting, that’s my imagination.
I think that "Iranzol" will not change significantly, thus it is supposed to be as a scent or smell. And that it would be much sharper, burning if the other ingredients were not incorporated. With frequent sniffing at my wrist, I finally smell a hint of patchouli and here and there something like white musk; "Iranzol" now smells a bit like sweet wood, thus like mild licorice.
"Iranzol" has intensified in sillage from the beginning and still exudes its sharp and burning scent with undiminished strength.
I assume that this will last a long time.
I now conclude the comment, leaving "Iranzol" on my wrist. If anything significant changes by tomorrow morning, I will update this.
Unisex, feminine? I don’t know if I can accept this as a perfume. But: "Iranzol" has something!
Addendum, 10:45 AM, over 10.5 hours after application, I still smell a thin film of "Inranzol" on an area of about 5-7 cm² of a pulse directly on the skin and at a distance of 10 cm a scent of bright, beautiful incense with a hint of camphor.
