Santal without cucumber
A fragrance that definitely makes an impression - but in a quiet, elegant way. Iris N Wood reminds me directly of Santal 33, but without the risky pickled dill and cucumber twist that often comes through there. Everything is cleaner and clearer here. And that's exactly what makes it so strong - especially in everyday life or at work.
The fragrance is very linear, which I don't mean in a negative way. You know what you're getting: a fine blend of creamy wood, light cardamom and that pleasantly dry iris. No great development, no surprises - but that's exactly what makes it so reliable. This is a huge plus point, especially in professional situations.
I like to wear it to work, meetings, even to lunch with colleagues - it's always appropriate, never too much, but still present. Very high quality. Absolutely unisex.
And yet... as much as I appreciate it, somehow I'm always undecided whether it's one of my favorite fragrances or not. No corners, no edges. It lacks that one special detail, yet it is beautiful. It is a top candidate as a confident, stylish all-rounder for everyday wear. But for 280€? Mhmm.
I'm also not sure whether the fragrance has been discontinued or whether there were simply production problems. I couldn't find it again in many perfumeries, but peux-a-peux it is slowly reappearing. Would be a shame if it was discontinued - I think?
