Description
“Portraying the impression of Japanese’s summer garden and the most beautiful iris of all, Japanese iris. Its white-purple-yellow petals are blossoming with spectacular size than other iris. Your walk wander through fully bloom Japanese water lilies in the pond. Flares of morning light were flickering when you found huge purple hydrangea bush under a wisteria tree. Although summer is not a wisteria season but the scent spread through the garden all year round. The walk ends at a peaceful Zen shrine where a lovely yuzu grows and Kodo (Japanese incense) are everywhere.”
Jardin d’Iris was launched in 2016. The nose behind this fragrance is Prin Lomros.

i love the idea of this one, but on my skin it just doesn’t translate. i think the combination of yuzu, incense, (not listed here, but ‘kodo’ incense is mentioned on the website) salt and maybe the iris concrete create a sort of ‘mr sheen polish’ smell that, by association, destroys any image of a japanese shrine in the mountains. such a shame. i wish i got more of the fresh aspects and floral tones but it’s just not to be.
on the plus side, longevity seems fairly good even if it is a skin scent on me after an hour, though in my opinion this suits the story behind it.

Metallic sweet apples & sea breeze.
This is more salty than iris! as i matter of fact, i don’t detect iris! it does have salty green notes, sea breeze, and ocean spray. It has water lily as well.
This is more of an aquatic metallic than greens or floral, as it has hint of sweetness as well. No, not really a good one tho.
Edit (26th June 2018) The colder it goes the leathery it become! like a slightly salty yet floral leather… or more likely rubbery than leathery.. like a floral leather.

I love this. Make me feel calm. I get the vibe of making meditation in the Japanese garden. I get incense note in it which is light and make this one interesting.

This scent makes me feel like I stay in the Japanese garden with smell of iris, soft incense, and fresh air. This is the great one of calmness and sophisticated scent.
The longevity and projection are really good.
More than words to say I’m in love with this one. ^^
