In the last 2 years, there has been a veritable flood of sweet gourmands that have allowed people to smell like a dessert. Be it caramel, toffee, chocolate, coffee, meringue, or cupcakes - upon entering a store, people disguised themselves as calorie-laden meals. “Red Flag” is my long-awaited ‘Finally!’ Finally, the type of gourmand that I like.
How brilliant is this opening with garden-fresh beetroot? Fresh and soft with cardamom. Just a hint of sweetness from the tonka bean. The beets softly glide over the skin. As if one had held a fresh beet in their hand. The iris pairs wonderfully and comes across as a herbaceous iris. A bit like in “Velvet Iris” by Dominique Ropion.
Alongside it, there’s cuddly palo santo. I hardly notice the patchouli.
In the dry-down, the cardamom remains. And it stays for a long time.
For me, the fragrance is unisex and can be worn well during the day.
