What do reviewers say about Hiris and Bas de Soie?
Iris done the way it deserves, quiet, contemplative, powdery. Not a fragrance that announces itself. The kind that gets remembered by the people who matter.Hiris
Iris does powdery well. No hedging about it. The hyacinth keeps it from becoming a makeup compact, adds that cut-stem green underneath, a sharpness that prevents softness from curdling.Bas de Soie
