Fig with iris?
First spray reminded me of a combination of TF metallique + ELDO she was an anomaly and Diptique's Philosykos. That's the best way to decribe this one. The iso e super is there but hardly noticeable. The iris in contrary is amazing in this one. Cant stop sniffing my wrist. really an all day al year but especially summer scent.

And if you want to make Iso e super yourself you can order here a set with all the ingredients.
( with iris, ( Orris butter in this one) . you can order seperately on the same site.

Polished Metallic Sharp Purple Iris
The first time I smelled it about a year or so ago? The smell made me think of the physical texture of denim with a hint of the color green.

However this past December I decided to test it out on skin just bc and abt 3 hours into the day a coworker who works about 10ft from me abruptly stopped what she was doing, turned to me and said “what are you wearing, I really like that” she walked up to me and I told her it was unisex and ended up airdropping her a link to the EM website where she could buy it. I asked her what it smelled like and she said she didn’t know how to describe it but that it was “pretty”
I’m a guy so I asked if she thought it was masculine or feminine scent and she thought for a few seconds and all she said was “manly but very, very pretty. I really like it though”

To me it’s a sharp almost metallic purple iris. After it dries down it becomes a thick faint yellow? Purple creamy iris.
Bent-down to pick something up and when I came back up I got a whiffs of idk if it was the iso e super but it was so nice! I bought a full bottle but kind of regret it bc idk if I really like it like it….

Sprays it a total of 5 times with the 7ml tester on moisturizer clean skin
Once on each side of my neck (2)
Once behind my neck (1)
Once on each shoulder on clothes (2)

Clean skin and iris
This perfume is really simple, as it opens up clean and fresh, almost citrusy. I don't find it becoming powdery or earthy at any point (on my skin, as I'm seeing mixed reviews about it, so I guess it's best to try it yourself).

It's a light, fresh iris that that whiffs through the air close to he skin while it last, usually around 7 hours for me.

I find it perfect for working environments, where you may want to be more quiet with your scents. Find it very elegant and simple at the same time. Very appealing and definitely never inappropriate. Easy grab when you don't feel like wearing anything.

As fleeting as beautyful
Tested this and it is beautyful, a bit less fluffy and powdery than Infusion d'Iris (2015) Eau de Parfum but still ethereal and airy. A little bit too airy I'm afraid because, sillage-wise, even soft Prada Infusion d'Iris is nuclear compared to this. Too bad, because the Iris is beautyful, but this really doesn't project. Maybe it's the molecules that won't perform on my skin, I don't know; sillage and longevity are getting mixed ratings so could be all about skin-chemistry.
Really should be tested first to make sure it will perform on your skin; on mine it does not and so I won't be buying a full bottle.

Elegant and lovely iris.
It opens with a very bright, rooty iris (it reminds me a little bit of carrots, in a good way haha). There’s a lightly sweet woodiness backing it up. It feels very clean, bright and cool (in temperature). It's soft, but lasts. I catch whiffs of it when I'm not expecting it. If I were to assign it a color I would say silver and white.
Overall it has an ethereal effect, as if one stumbled upon a sculpture of an angel atop a fountain in a misty, long-forgotten garden.
Part of me is frustrated that I like this so much... I think this brand is a bit gimmicky, and it's not my usual style. But with the iris, it just works so well.

A lemony woody powderiness.
The iris is hardly noticeable; it mainly accentuates and supports the smooth woodiness of iso-e super.

Smells like the spray you get off of cracking open a Dr Pepper. Iris in “iso”-lation is lovely, if not a bit head-ache inducing.

I know this uses iris absolute, but I'm picking up a violet note. (Maybe it's the natural ionones?)

Floral and nice. Powdery. Does that the woody scent a little. Summery and grandma-y. But nice!

Surprisingly addictive. Clean, fresh and feminine iris scent. If it works with your skin chemistry you'll probably fall in love with it too!

A sort of light citrus twinge with some powderiness? A little rooty, too. The most delicate opening of the Molecules. It’s okay. Soft.

I don't know... smells like a watered down iris infusion. Sillage really weak. For the days when you don't want to wear perfume

An amplifier for other perfumes. I think that's how it was intended. On its own, there's not a whole lot to it. Layered, it comes to life.

Unique iris-focused concept with skin chemistry twist; great idea, weak execution. Performance underwhelming for the price.
