What do reviewers say about Iridium and Patchouly?
Iris for people who find most iris too soft. The silvery ISO-E-Super spine cuts through the powdery sweetness, giving it an architectural quality that stays interesting on skin. Not loud.Iridium
Some fragrances announce themselves. This one already knows where it stands, quietly holding ground in warm amber and deep patchouli. Not for those who need to be noticed.Patchouly
