Woody Cinnamon Apple
Black Orris is now the 3rd perfume I am testing from HFC and it is the best so far …
Longevity and sillage are, as usual with HFC, above average.
Compared to Or Noir, the scent is less creamy, and compared to Sword Dancer, you don’t have that medicinal beige note … Black Orris smells to me primarily warm, woody-spicy, almost like cinnamon apple but not too sweet! Just right for me and not too fougère-like, such as Noir Extreme by TF. Black Orris envelops you in something so beautifully warm and woody that it is best worn on cold days. However, the lavender, lemon, and rockrose bring in some freshness, so it can actually be worn all year round; only in summer, at over 30 degrees, it will have a hard time … I also think that even though this is a men’s fragrance, it can also be worn by women …

Here the story repeats itself; "The Emperor's New Clothes." I don't get the hype, the scent is available at Dior for €134/100ml and it's better.

Iris without sweet undertones, which is good. Dior has been doing this for a while, this one is quieter - which is also good.

Pleasantly soft office scent with depth. Iris combined with noble sandalwood creates a creamy-spicy elixir with elevated H/S.

Somehow like Dior Homme Intense (2011) but softer. If you have the former, you don't need this one. It's still nice though.

You're on the wrong track.. a lot of sandalwood paired with spice and lavender in the background, unfortunately few nuances as it develops, good sillage.
