    Real talk

    The powdery iris either pulls you in or it doesn't. What surprises most people is the warmth underneath, the cardamom and cedar that keep the cool floral from becoming static.Iris Obscur
    Built for women who wear florals like armor, not apology. Love In Black doesn't ask permission to be noticed. The powdery iris and warm rose hold steady through an 8-10 hour day, no touch-ups needed.Love in Black
