Not the iris butter I had hoped for
I love iris butter รก la Celine Black Tie ) and therefore wanted to test more fragrances with this component. So it was only natural that I should try Orris Tattoo. Supposedly, it only contains this note. I can't say whether this is the case. It doesn't seem that way to me. Other reviewers/statement writers mention a synthetic woody note, which I personally perceive, if at all, then rather in the background and which does not bother me.
For me, Orris Tattoo is unfortunately not quite what I expected. I had hoped for a warm, soft, buttery iris butter. One that you want to sink your teeth into. This one is more of a masculine (albeit very subtle) iris butter that tends towards freshness. Fortunately, I don't smell any carrots, but I almost wish I did, because I simply miss sweetness and warmth here.
I'm not a raw material freak and I'm sure there will be different iris butters and - depending on the combination in which they are contained in fragrances - they will come across differently. So I can't rule out the possibility of false expectations on my part.
I also know the Milky Musk/39 from Parle-moi-de-Parfum, which I once owned but then let go as a bottle in the souk. It was also somehow different from what I had expected. Milky - yes, okay. But more in the direction of milky-synthetic wood and musk. Not a bad perfume - not at all. But also rather masculine for me due to the strong musky note.
What am I trying to say? Apparently there are simply fragrance houses that don't suit you that well. I've already discovered a few. Unfortunately, Parle-moi-de-Parfum is obviously one of them. Which of course doesn't mean that I'll try another fragrance at some point - thanks to curiosity
