Hmmm… I had something completely different in mind.. Maybe because of the color or the name. I don’t know.. I imagined something really dense, rich, floral, almost chewing-gum-like but in a mature and elegant way. Also something powdery because of the iris. In short, it is none of that.. Not at all.. If you love very fruity fragrances, you should try this one. Opinions on this scent vary..
The scent starts off very fruity, immediately reminding me of my childhood.. I originally come from Copenhagen and back in the 60s and 70s it was not uncommon for us to have -30 degrees in winter.. Every morning at the breakfast table there was this, to me very unpopular, elderberry juice.. Ufff… Supposedly it was supposed to be good for the immune system because of the high vitamin C content.. In any case,
Sweet Morphine catapults me straight back to the breakfast table and back to my unpopular “juice”.. Brrrrr…. I liked neither the taste nor the smell of that juice.. For the first 30 minutes, the scent smells only of warm elderberry juice to me.. I am generally absolutely not a fan of fruity fragrances, which is why I am also not a fan of the “opening”..
In the drydown, the scent becomes less fruity, which is good, but what is interesting is something else.. A little floral notes come through and the iris gives off a hint of powder but just a hint.. However, the scent becomes increasingly a bit piercing and sharp.. In summer, I would find the scent quite nice from the dry down but not more.. I wouldn’t wear it though.. It doesn’t suit me at all.. Overall, a rather linear fruity/floral scent that really doesn’t smell bad from the dry down but is somehow boring.. A scent that has been smelled a thousand times in countless variations.. I miss something interesting, something that would make the scent exciting and intriguing. If one could have smelled a bit more than just a hint of woody notes, the scent would have been rounder, more mature, and more interesting. Unfortunately, I hardly smell any woody notes, even though the pyramid promises something different..
The scent does become increasingly beautiful in the drydown but it takes time to reach this phase.. In the drydown, I like it best and it becomes almost beautiful after an hour.. For me, a summer scent for a young woman..
If I had tested the scent blindly without knowing which fragrance it was, I would have guessed it was some scent from Britney Spears.. Ouch, I know that sounds harsh, but that’s how this scent smells to me.. Fruity/light floral without edges and corners.. Very girly.. Maybe I also tested the scent at the wrong time of year. However, I can imagine that one would find this scent very nice if one is young and totally into fruity light floral fragrances..
H+S quite weak.. After 2 hours, the scent is neither noticeable to me nor to my surroundings.. "Irisss | XerJoff" is listed as similar.. So sorry, the scent has as much in common with "Irisss | XerJoff" as I do with Mother Teresa.. So please don’t go by that..
