Description
With its cucumber-cool, earthy, slightly skin-like facets contrasting with bright, clean, lined-dried linen effects, this
modern, powerful organic compound comes as close as you can get to orris butter without tearing an iris field out
by its roots and waiting six years for it to yield its fragrance.
In Iri_del, Patricia Choux gives iris a contemporary twist by blowing off its aristocratic powdered wig and dressing
it up in a slim, sharply-tailored suit. Bolstered by iris concrete and irone alpha (the main molecule of the natural
ingredient), the iris accord is stretched over an angular structure of crackling woody-ambery notes. Bergamot and
ambrette – a vegetal musk with crystalline rose, pear and iris facets – shed their radiance on the trim, dry blend.
This is iris gone urban: spare, fierce and sexy.
Iri-del was launched in 2015.

From the description I thought this was going to be “it” for me but sadly it fades away so quickly that it couldn’t possibly merit a FB buy. It’s soft and powdery but not enlightening “ump” for me.

This perfume is very interesting in an intriguing kind of way. It’s powdery but not feminine perhaps due to the leather notes (though there is no leather notes listed). It smells as if you just sat down at the wheel of a new Lamborghini, definitely a new car smell. Not sure I want to smell like a new car though – even if the perfume is not bad. The longevity is a disaster and the sillage is very close to the skin.
Scent: 3/10
Longevity: 1/10
Sillage: 1/10
Cost ratio: 1/10
Overall: 1.5
This one should be a pass, unless you want to smell like the interior of a new car for about an hour.

OH WOW… i like this one very, it has that leathery iris woody thing that makes my mouth waters at max, like a tender masculine woody plate in a wooden hut within a forest full of iris & you can smell that leathery items all around the place.
A very interesting fragrance to my taste. But unfortunately it is too weak and doesn’t last more than an hour 🙁
