POWDERY
On me, this fragrance read exclusively as powdery, with some artificial florals on top of that overwhelming baby powder accord. The fragrance, as a result, felt almost dry to me, although I'm seeing in other reviews that people enjoy the juiciness of the floral notes. Definitely calmed down as it aged, but I'd still avoid this one as a younger woman as it felt like a daytime fragrance for someone much older. The longevity seemed average or a bit below; I'm not someone who needs every fragrance to be beast mode, but I certainly wouldn't call this one an exceptional performer.

You must be joking
Tanagra is the only women scent from the discovery set. It opens with a lively citrus splash, and immediately slides into the gentle fruity smell (the pear). From there, it moves gradually toward the floral direction.
The scent smells good and shares the light and elegant characteristic with many other Maison Violet scents. What’s particularly striking (or disappointing) is its longevity. It is unperceivable after only 1 hour!!! It makes Oud Wood’s longevity look good, which is unthinkable.

Although I'm not an iris fan, I find it very appealing that the powder is well integrated with fruity and floral notes and vetiver.

A quite pleasant mix of fruit, powdery sweetness, subtle flowers, and a hint of dry wood in the finish. A bit too rounded.

Delicate iris scent with violets in the hair and clouds of musk. Fresh-sweet-clean. Friendly and easy to wear.

After the refreshing morning start with fruity bright flowers, Iris quickly transitions into the powdery-woody, elegantly gray-pragmatic everyday life.

Not an overwhelming floral scent, where jasmine and fruity components in subtle doses create a bright, playful iris fragrance.

Snacking on pear compote,
sipping rose water,
lounging in the sun,
Princess Lillifee
tiredly falls into the made iris bed.
No go.

Soft woody iris breeze!
Floral notes float along the scent journey.
Nothing new in the iris league -
could use more strength - nice

Powdery iris, greeted by subtle fruits and resting on lightly sweet wood. Bright + light, not too floral. Delicate + balanced. Nice...

Bright iris scent, starts citrusy with a subtle tea note. Similar to The Time or a bit like Montale's iris. Base is creamy and slightly sweet woody.

A showcase scent of the feminine mainstream class: fresh-fruity, floral-powdery, and slightly sweet-woody. And without vanilla this time. Good.
