What do reviewers say about Interlude Black Iris and Vanilla Edesia?
If Interlude Man is a controlled burn, Black Iris is the smoldering aftermath, cooler and more refined. The iris adds a powdery sophistication that makes this one of Amouage's most wearable orientals.Interlude Black Iris
Vanilla that refuses to stay polite. The cumin and coriander give it a pulse beneath the sweetness, an almost animalic warmth that some find fascinating and others find too much.Vanilla Edesia
