i does look like Infusion d’Iris ….but after several hours (and on a weak side) .
On my skin , the mandarine is there for hours and hides the iris, the spirit of Infusion , it’s too sugary for my taste ( really the mandarine is too much and destroys the powdery effect of the iris) , it could be worn, bith by women and men.
I’m not convinced , i would have prefered it dryer and with more powder , whereas at the end , finally the vetiver arrives and makes it woody, not powdery
Molyneux made better things …

il ressemble beaucoup au parfum Infusion d’ Homme de PRADA… a la seule différence qu’il est beaucoup plus leger, le sillage est agréable mais s’évanouit vite… Pour ceux qui aime Les iris de Prada mais qui n’ont pas les moyens de se l’acheter, Rue de la Boétie est une belle alternative, même odeur a un prix plus faible, ceci dit la tenue s’en ressent…
it looks very similar to the perfume “Infusion d ‘Homme de PRADA” … the only difference is that it is much lighter, the smell is pleasant but fades quickly … For those who love Prada iris but which do not have the means to buy it, “Rue de la Boétie” is a nice alternative, the same smell at a lower price, but cons holding the perfume is very low …

Got interested about it and based on the notes I gave it a try and ordered a 100ml bottle. And it is love at first sniff! Reminds me a bit of Prada Infusion d`Iris; I get a lot of throwbacks to my childhood too with a hint of baby powder or vintage talc more like in there somehow that is lightly concealing everything else like a veil and tones down all the other notes. It is soft, mild, but in my book it is definitely not unisex, flowers and powder would be odd on a male.. (Although nowadays a lot of pour hommes smell rather feminine..)
It is a scent of reasonable price, but it does smell good and lasts! Highly recommended to try.
EDIT: I actually find that this one and Infusion d`Iris are kind of counterparts, but in this first you get iris, then in the drydown all the other notes open up, whereas in ID`I the opening is mild and it dries down to strong, powdery iris – rather sharp. This is not only cheaper, but a lot easier to wear, I`DI is more unisex to me, this one is softer. But it doesn`t actually last as long as I`DI. I still prefer this better than the Prada juice.

Got this today. And…like I always remind myself…to let a scent develope on my skin/chemistry before making a descision in the like/love/dislike/hate categories…
At first spritz …I was not too happy..I got a vinyl doll type smell, so I sat back and let it do it’s thing.
I am rather enjoying the scent right now. Thumbs up!
Nothing “remarkable”, but very wearable.
I get NO real similarites to Shalimar Intial L’Eau.
Maybe the weight and air of the scent only.
I get mostly peony upfront…the Iris is hiding…and the light touch of vetiver is under-lying at most.
For $15, not a bad blind-buy. I will have to see how it progresses thru a full-day wearing.
EDIT: 8/15/16
I am REALLY loving this one now !!! So glad I own it.
I am getting a extra touch of Violet somehow now….Yum !!

This is a beautiful good quality perfume for an affordable price. It reminds be Bal d’Afrique from Byredo but the vetiver here is more powdery, fresh, classy and feminine, thanks to the combination of many flowers with the iris. Bergamot is also very present, so this is not a sweet perfume. Could almost be unisex.

This fragrance has the same vibe of Prada Infusion d’Iris and Chanel no19 Poudre: iris and musk are the main figures.
If you can´t afford Prada or Chanel, give this one a try.
Very conforting and cuddly (because of iris and musk). Makes you smell clean and nice.
