What do reviewers say about Cuir Ottoman and Iris Shot?
The iris-leather pairing is either brilliant or polarizing. That tension IS the point. It begins with cool powder, then commits to a warm, intimate vanilla-suede.Cuir Ottoman
Iris Shot is not a typical iris fragrance. It leans more metallic and aldehydic than powdery, and the blackcurrant and cardamom create an unexpected electricity in the opening.Iris Shot
