    Real talk

    This is iris for people who think they don't like iris. The smoke and tonka bean keep it grounded, stop it from going full powder-room. Warm enough to wear in winter, interesting enough to remember.Gaiac Mystique
    Valentino Uomo Intense takes the refined iris of the original and kicks it up with real warmth and spice. The leather is clean, the vanilla is restrained, and the sage-juniper heart keeps things.Valentino Uomo Intense
