Iridescent Sky

If you’re looking for an olfactory substitute to eating pineapple off a hot aluminium tray [with an aluminium fork] in a vaguely European countryside, then your search should definitely conclude here! Very happy perfume, love the fact it’s got aluminium, love the citrus – just beautiful summery stuff. I’d say the aluminium note is more akin to undergoing vacuum metalization, rather than ingesting the pure aluminium itself – not much metal, but indeed covering a large surface area. Really reminds me of my childhood house’s back garden, though that’s probably not applicable for everyone. Bottle is also really nice – cube stuff.

I got a sample from Bloom and this is soo amazing, the opening is mostly sharp aluminium which isn‘t too strong it‘s more like sunshine sharp aluminium with a bit of Ambrette and Pomelo. Then it slowly transforms into this Pomelo Lemonade with Aluminium and a slight bit of Tea in the Background. Perfectly blendend and an awesome Summer scent, my favorite, in the dry-down there is more smoke that isn‘t too off-putting. This sings attention in a good way. Great scent.

In its opening, it's what I think Tana Mongeau would smell like. like a bottled up version of Burning Man. Maybe like one of those stores that looks like this: https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/sVxT-9S0ReHhX53e2TcNVA/1000s.jpg I didn't know aluminum was in this, and that was what was making it smell like that. When it dried down it all blended together and started to smell like what the name suggests, like iridescent fabric. Cool! Unfortunately there's something too fruity and florally about it, and I'm allergic to it.

Opened up with sharp citrus fruity notes and then tea followed. Too bad the tea wasn’t strong enough to make the scent a fruity tea scent. Towards the end it turned smoky, almost too smoky, making it a bit irritating. But overall the scent was likable. On skin it pasted about six hrs. On clothing it lasted over twelve hrs.

You're out at sea, sitting on the deck of your yacht, eating blueberry waffles and drinking lemonade. Ain't no rules out here, baby! Iridescent Sky by Strangers Parfumerie.
