Dark Chocolate Iris
Now I love me some iris and the first 20-30 minutes of Iris Malikhan are everything I could have asked for and more: a dark, bitter, chocolatey, leathery iris that has my nose glued to my wrist. What an unusual combination! Maison Crivelli is a house that really puts a lot of thought and passion into its perfumes and everything I have tried so far has made me curious enough to order their entire discovery set. Unfortunately, the dry down of Iris Malikhan is such a let down! The iris disappears, giving way to the most common place vanilla. Now I don`t hate vanilla or anything, but the contrast to that amazing opening is too disappointing. Sigh.
