What do reviewers say about Iris de Gris and Back to the Roots?
This is not a fragrance that announces itself. Galbanum leads with an almost vegetal sharpness before the iris smooths everything into something refined. If you want projection, look elsewhere.Iris de Gris
Not every fragrance needs to fill a room. Some are better left close to the skin, noticed only when someone leans in. This one's earthy, powdery, and surprisingly grounding.Back to the Roots
