Suede Orris Eau de Parfum

Molton Brown Suede Orris EdP is very nice. Though I was hoping for something similar to Iris Prima, this does not resemble it at all. It has far more sillage and longevity than the Penhaligon’s. This does share the feeling of Serge Lutens Daim Blond though it is airier. Very silky texture with distinct mandarin at the top, The orris and benzoin lead the mid notes and the suede melds into it and stays throughout. Average to good sillage at arms length and surprisingly good longevity for an iris/ orris scent. This was bought blind, and I have zero regrets. Will likely replace it when it is gone.

A beautiful citrus/iris scent with a crisp, semi-tart airy quality & clean resinous finish. There is very little sweetness from the vanilla and it is only detectable 3+ hours into the drydown. It has very impressive projection & longevity for an iris-centric fragrance. Definitely unisex, refined and appropriate for daytime wear (I think it would also be great for layering). An underrated gem and a must have, especially if you can find it at a discounted price.

I love this perfume. It feels very elegant and feminine to me. It has the powdery iris with a hint of fruitiness and a hint of fine suede. The scent is not strong, but it lasts a long time. If it gets on your clothes, it will remain even after washing. I said it was feminine, but now I think it would be sexy for a man to wear too. If you have the chance, I would like you to smell this and understand how wonderful this perfume is.

This is so pretty. Very soft, feminine, unique, and extremely well-blended. I agree with papercrowncarrie; old money is a very suitable description. I need a bottle!

The opening is extremely elegant and quite masculine, green and herbal. As the scent progresses, an ozonic note takes centre stage. It might be violet (listed among the accords, so I'm clearly not the only one who can smell it here) although I think this particular note is more often identified as lotus - for example in Malachite by Banana Republic. The whole middle stage of Suede Orris smells very much like Malachite. Now, over 10 hours from when I sprayed this perfume, I can smell a soapy clean Iris. From the notes I expected a warm and cosy scent, but this is not the first iris perfume that I find surprisingly cool and fresh. I don't think I need a full bottle of this, but I thoroughly enjoyed wearing it today. I'm especially impressed with how beautifully the scent progresses. Thank you @Cherry_Darling for letting me try this 🤗
