Iris Poudre may just be the prettiest iris perfume I've smelled. It's actually not as powdery as the name suggests, which is good for me. I smell true iris, an unsoapy unpowdery beautiful floral...

Words cannot adequately describe my love of this fragrance. It's bordering on signature scent worthiness for me....and I NEVER aspired to have a signature scent. After trying this lovely powdery...

Iris Poudre is my favourite Frederic Malle fragrance. It is just beautiful! As others have mentioned, it is a cool, soft, powdery iris, not too sweet and with a hint of violet and jasmine peeking...

This. Is. Glorious. Very refined, powdery, unsweet woodsy iris, with some sharp aldehydic topnotes. Feels like the very heart of what I love in Chanel No. 19. Austere, brilliant, meditative. Not...

I guess this does not work on my skin! To me, iris poudré, is a kind of sour, hair-spray-like scent. I tried my sample now for a week, but my nose just dislikes it. Maybe I have a wrong idea of how...

I normally can not stomach powdery scents, but with Iris Poudre, I am hooked! From the intial application to it's dry down, I love every moment of it's ever morphing creativity. It changes so much...

Wow! At first spray I was not loving it (seemed very dry and overly powdery at first) but it dries down quickly to a gorgeous scent that is more vanilla to me than powder. Warm, delicious, sexy. A...

I love this fragrance - it's the only iris scent I love, in much the way that Caron Violettes Precieux is the only violet scent I love. Both are soft, only mildly sweet, powdery, green/woody, with...

"Harsh" is not a word ordinarily associated with iris-based and/or powdery scents, but I have no other word to describe Iris Poudre. I am sorry to spoil the party here, but this scent actually...

This perfume has the mystery of an aldehyde, which I like very much. It has the warm resonance and fizzy effervescence of Chanel No. 5, the famous first aldehyde, or Boucheron. It also shares...

This is one of the very few perfumes my husband loves. I wore it quite a lot the last few days and he kept complimenting on how much he liked it. I think it is extremely wearable - yes it is...

This is a complex fragrance that probably does different things on different people. At first, I got the pure iris; but that only lasted a few minutes. Then, a floral mix that had a very sharp...

Iris Poudre strikes me as both familiar and unconventional. [An aside: the initial spray smells exactly like a fragrance I wore in high school, Yves St. Laurent's Champagne, now called Yvresse, a...

This is so beautiful! A perfect iris scent: not too old-ladyish, not too powdery. No other notes interfere with the pure iris. Just beautiful! I love the body cream too- lasts all day.
