Minimal and classy
This perfume could be similar to a White silk shirt: minimal, but very elegant and classy.
Iris notes are noticeable and the ensemble is well balanced and pleasant. It's a powdery scent, but not too much because neroli and citruses give a particular modern freshness. The price is high, but the product and the bottle too are very very good

Enchanting, lovely powdery cleanliness
Remembered I smelled this in the past and regretting that I didn't buy it then (still regret that because I think it was a bit cheaper then), it was a long time ago though, so I sampled first to see if I would still love it and, oh my, I do!!! Bought a full bottle immediately.
And really: I think I'm ready now, this completes my collection, in fact this could well be my signature.
I find this scent beyond gorgeous!! It actually is what I love in Chanel 19 but with something kind and feminine added that I sometimes miss in Chanel 19 (guess I should have bought the 'poudre' version of Chanel 19 maybe, but I don't need to bother now, having both Chanel 19 and Infusion d'Iris).
Love the sillage of this, I get these beautyful, enchanting wafts with every movement.
It is so clean in such a beautyful, angelic, versatile way!
Opening is a little citrussy, but in a soft feminine way, not sharp. Then that lovely Iris come's through, not the paper-kind of Iris and not the too sweet/powdery Iris, but a fresh Iris, perfectly balanced between those two.
Oh, such a lovely powder this is, a cool, not stuffy powder.
Uplifiting but also calming. Soft and gentle but not aloof.
Sillage I find much better than rated and I can smell it many hours after spraying.
Perfection! So happy with this scent!

Edit: Really LOVE this, woke up to the beautyful smell this morning, it really has way better longevity and sillage then rated in my opinion, or maybe it's my chemistry, but usually perfumes don't last on me this long. And the scent is lovely at first spray, but even gets better and better, the longer it is on my skin!

Edit II: Still love it, but I've noticed one shouldn't overspray this scent and not too close to the nose because this is a scent one can easily get nose-blind to. I guess that explains the relatively low ratings for sillage and longevity.

Elegant, powdery, mature
Lately, I've been acquiring fragrances that I wouldn't necessarily purchase myself, if at all. I have been blessed to be #gifted so many that I am grossly behind on reviewing them and taking photos, but one that really stood out was Infusion d'Iris. Besides the beautiful bottle, many of you have recommended it to me as well. Infusion d'Iris is a powdery fragrance, so I had my doubts, but this is how it went...

On paper, the scent is very mature from the get go. It does have a slight mandarine top note, but the thickness and powderiness of the fragrance makes it far from fresh, but elegant and, how I only can describe it, mature. After dry down, the scent is less thick than it was in the beginning. What is revealed is an elegant, smooth and sophisticated fragrance. It has a slight peppery undertone, but very faint. Perhaps from the benzoin.

On skin, Infusion d'Iris is even more rich in mandarin, which I really like. It gives it a light hearted freshness. After dry down, the mandarin fizzles away, but the scent isn't as powdery and thick as it was on paper. I find it quite difficult to describe. It is powdery, but also so many other things. I would give it a "freshly washed linen" quality, but not as realistic and simple as in Clean fragrances.

Months later, I am revisiting the fragrance, because I haven't finished my review and... I actually haven't worn it either. Infusion d'Iris is just not me and I have learned to let go. Gone are the days where the collection has to be as big as possible. I really only want to own fragrances that I love.
Goodbye Infusion d'Iris.

Controversial discourse between author & imaginary reader about marzipan cake. An outline in 8 paragraphs
Already after briefly dealing with my new hobby "perfume" I came across (of course) the brand Guerlain and the mysterious so-called "Guerlinade". After a short research it seems to be a mixture of rose, jasmine, neroli, iris, tonka & vanilla (& bergamot? Depending on the source) and is described as "almondy" or "iris+vanilla" or "buttery". Now, I've been able to test a few Guerlains so far and yes, even my untrained nose imagines to smell some kind of red thread. Especially with "Mon précieux Nectar" and the recently tested "Après l'Ondée" the following note overlaps ALL notes of the pyramid after a very short time: light-fluffy, powdery-sugary, freshly baked sponge cake and buttery marzipan cake. Why cake? I don't know, but the scents both go in a sweet-gourmand direction for me.

imaginary reader: Hey, wait a minute with your amateurish comments about Guerlain. I thought I was here on a comment about a Prada! What does that have to do with "Infusion d'Iris" now anyway!

Well, well, dear reader.
Also with "Infusion d'Iris" I smell after a short time this special marzipan cake touch. First fresh-fruity tangerine and a delicate green blossom on a pond, but only very briefly, then the marzipan comes along and butter, warm butter, and overlays like the two Guerlains ALL other notes of the pyramid.

imaginary reader: Mmm, okay, is your subjective impression, but, times purely factually, I thought the Guerlinade consists of rose, jasmine, neroli, iris, tonka & vanilla? Of which is here yes only iris & neroli in it!

Jaja, I do not understand it either!!! However, the benzoin is vanilla, right? Maybe that's good as a substitute for vanilla & tonka - anyway - anyway, now you've brought me out.
Clears throat. The "Infusion d'Iris" manages not to become too cakey on me. Something pleasantly citrusy remains throughout the fragrance. Somehow, the fragrance is pleasant - and sorry again to all Guerlain lovers and Parfumos with far greater knowledge of fragrances than I - this infusion reminds me of "Après l'Ondée", only in better.

imaginary reader: Ah, now slowly I see your point. But did you like the fragrance now? That's why I read this whole comment. Actually, I just want to know how you can imagine the approximately and what do I get? Unfounded gibberish about Guerlinaden and cake--

Okay Then just the standard comment content: at first I liked it, tangerine & flower was nice, then it became too buttery marzipan cake-like for me, I did not like that, but then that got a bit in and now it's nice again, still cake, but with citrus and more watery.

Imaginary Reader: Ah, finally, was that so hard, my face -- and don't you dare say Guerlain again --

Guerlain!

Imaginary reader: that's not too --

Guerlain!

Wardrobe Staples...
I have a very full wardrobe and actually for every occasion something suitable to dress. And yet every day I stand in front of it again and have the feeling that today simply nothing suits my mood. It's to milk mice.
But wait! I still have one trump card: there is this beautifully simple, cream-coloured silk blouse that I bought years ago on a day trip to Salzburg. This blouse, in all its simplicity, is for me the salvation in distress that is always appropriate, no matter what the occasion. And she makes me feel good, maybe even beautiful. She suits me, she suits me.
The Prada iris is the olfactory equivalent of this blouse. Not exciting, but so unbelievably round and incontrovertible that it is always wearable and gives me a feeling of well-being. I feel good with this fragrance, I may even feel attractive.
All this happens in such an unagitated, relaxed and subtle way that it is probably only me who perceives it. But as long as I abstract this feeling of inner satisfaction to the outside, it fits.
Powdery-creamy, slightly floral and a very tiny bit of "spice" - simply wonderfully reserved and pleasant. Not "Wow" (breathtaking), but a positive "Hmmmmmmhmm" (comforting sighing).
I wasn't a fan of iris until a few months ago. This scent here has reconciled me to her and opened this door for me. Thanks to Infusion d'Iris for that. A permanent place in my collection has definitely earned this feel-good fragrance.

Beautiful powdery / soapy iris and neroli. It smells exactly like 5/stars hotel soap in the 90s... very beautiful and nostalgic ?

This is what I wear after I take a shower and get into bed with freshly washed sheets and pillow cases. The cleanest and purest scent.

Soft powder + soapiness infused with fresh orange, iris... and a buttload of woods. Why not more iris? Gets more orangey as it dries down.

Vintage powdery iris that has layers to it. Intimate projection and has decent longevity. Very cozy to wear and is generally mass appealing
