What it actually smells like

Fig and blackcurrant give the opening a juicy, ripe fruitiness, lifted by bergamot and pink pepper. Rose, jasmine and orange flower build a full floral heart before iris becomes increasingly prominent, adding its distinctive powdery texture. Sandalwood and a gourmand accord bring creamy warmth and sweetness underneath, giving the dry down a richer, more rounded feel.

Who this is for

Ideal if you enjoy substantial floral fragrances with fruit, powder and sweetness all clearly present. It suits special occasions particularly well if you want something polished and feminine with a strong iris character and noticeable presence.

Not for you if

You prefer light, understated florals or find prominent iris, powdery textures and gourmand sweetness too rich.
