Iris Fine Sandalwood
The scent starts off citrusy fresh. Probably to put the tester's sense of smell at ease, I thought to myself during the first sniff...
I have no idea what exactly Paradisone® is. In any case, this component of the top note must lend that bright floral quality that caps the citrusy top.
The fragrance fairy at Beck in Munich was eager to show me this other iris scent after the one I originally aimed for unfortunately didn't get along with my skin.
I pretended to know who she was talking about when she excitedly told me that Alberto Morillas finally has his own brand - Mizensir. Oh God, am I outing myself here as a philistine when it comes to renowned perfumers? Never mind.....
Initially, I turned to other scents at the LEN counter, without first politely assuring the fairy that I would return... which I did, as the fragrance immediately found its way into my shopping basket. After about three-quarters of an hour, a very beautiful iris-sandalwood scent had developed on my wrist.
The fragrance can be described as follows:
After the citrusy top note has faded, a very beautiful non-dry, bright sandalwood emerges after a few minutes, along with a fresh violet leaf and iris.
Depending on what one focuses on while sniffing, one or the other may dominate. Thus, the perfume remains present for perhaps over 1.5 hours in the further course.
Then something astonishing happens, which I experienced so distinctly for the first time with a fragrance. The perfume completely shifts; the sandalwood steps back, and iris takes center stage, remaining clear and non-soapy for some time. In the further course, a lightly powdered sandalwood perfumed with iris remains.
Bois Iridescent is a fragrance that oscillates between iris with violet leaves and a very bright, high-quality sandalwood. One might imagine it like a beautiful iridescent silk taffeta fabric, in which delicate green-blue and magenta threads have been spun. An incredible play of colors when such silk is crafted into a lavishly gathered ball gown. Perhaps that’s what is meant by iridescent.
Overall, a fine iris-sandalwood scent. Due to its restrained sillage, Bois Iridescent is also a wearable fragrance for the workplace and is definitely unisex.
