Ysatis Iris Givenchy for women

i am so disappointed. i have wanted this for so long and when i finally get my grubby mits on a bottle, all it presents to me is my 2 least favourite notes; patchouli and jasmine. i love iris and was hoping, after reading the reviews that this would be the dominant note. i didn't get any, AT ALL :( no violet, no iris, no berries and no mandarin. heavy, sludgy and tenacious, it's everything i dislike in a perfume.

Ysatis Iris strong, round and even if it starts as a happy floral it deepens and matures in the most pleasant way after a while on skin. Main notes are Tuberose, iris, violet and blackcurrant and just a mote of patchouli to add some depht. The fruits are so well blended in to the fragrance that they just add some freshness to the composition. well, the blackcurrant is detectable though. I think it will work very well as both a day and night scent. Well done Givenchy.

so luxurious!!! it smells expensive and is a lovely iris scent! not harsh nor oppulent! i wish the tuberose was a bit lighter in the first 10min.
love it!!!!i use it only on special occasions

This smells soo good! i love it!!!

Ooo I ordered a bottle unsniffed. can't wait to review it...hope I love it!!

A real success. Based on the purple packaging, I thought this would either contain a fruity mess, or it would be true to the nature of real orris and simply be a richer, rounder Ysatis. This perfume actually manages to be both, in just the right ratios. more later....

This is such a lovely and underrated scent! Iris, tuberose, and violet stand out in particular, and there's something to my nose un-ID-able in there that makes this slightly powdery mix somewhat juicy and very jolly - must be the black currant. I always get in a good mood smelling or wearing it.
Based solely on the scent itself, I would never have guessed this was a flanker to the original Ysatis, which is a soapy, some may say 'dated' powerhouse of a scent. There's nothing dated about Ysatis Iris. It's fresh, lovely and feminine, a scent that will make you smile. Sillage is just fine (noticeable but won't kill anybody), the lasting power is excellent.

Well, Ysatis Iris maybe isn't original Ysatis little sister, but it's child. Where the original is so spicy and animalistic, this is very flowery. Strong and flowery, no perfume with name Ysatis on it coudn't be light. There's not much common with the original, only in basenotes you can get some similarities.This is headspinning powdery iris with tuberose, opulent and rich. And sure better for evening than everyday. I like it.

It is very beautiful and luxurious floral classic ;o) For evening and special occasions
