    Real talk

    The powdery iris is the whole point. If that makes you nervous, the tart rhubarb opening is your buffer, it announces itself sharp, then steps aside for something softer.Encore Un Peu
    This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
