A scent that reminds one of beautiful English-style soap, slightly floral but not too sweet, quite "retro." The color "White" fits this perfume, "White Iris" indeed, not dark purple like irises often appear, but clean and pure like fresh laundry hanging on the line in an English spring garden. In the drydown, you can smell the white iris mixed with light musky notes that are also often used in detergents. The packaging and bottle are typically English-nostalgic, so an "added bonus."
