Iris Shadow

stumble upon it randomly, have never tried or even heard anything from this house. The branding of the bottle and name are darker and bolder than what it actually is. I love powdery scent, and this is right up my alley. it opens to a powdery floral musk, the pepper for me is undetectable despite myself being quite sensitive to it, so it really works for me. The bergamot is there to just balance things out, very very subtle. The litchi note is surprising in the sense that I can't smell it at all. Ignore the notes in this fragrance; it truly smells a lot simpler and calmer than the notes suggest. It does dried down slightly leathery but not strong type of leathery-scent, more true skin-like than anything. I usually dislike leather note as they smell like rubber on my skin; this is not that. This is a good all-dayer perfume, all season really. Office-friendly, errand-friendly, but also day and night-out-friendly. I tried the other Nightology line, and this one is one of the more blind-buy-friendly of the series. Quickly became my new signature scent. If you love white florals and dislike fruity & sweet scents, you might love it. Lasts quite alright, sillage is surprising. I hardly smell it once I sprayed it on me, but i've received comments from family and friends noticing & complimenting my new perfume, so I suppose it's not as soft as the notes itself.
