Narciso Rodriguez For Her Iridescent Narciso Rodriguez for women

If you already had NR EDP, you don't have to buy this version. Except your EDP has empty and you still want it also want a sharper, brighter, less powdery from the EDP you should take this ! The drydown is less roses than NR EDP. I will offer my cousins or my friends to buy my lovely NR Iridescent, because I don't want to have 2 similar perfumes at the same time.

I had been agonizing over whether to get the original NR For Her EDT or EDP and bought this on a whim insead. I'm glad I did. I don't have the EDP, but I have a smaple of the EDT and doing a side-by-side, Iridescent is much smoother. Whatever it was that was shrill or 'screechy' in the EDT has been softened. BUT it never gets sweetly floral flat the way I sometimes felt the EDP did.

I dont' know if it's just simply watered down, I mean it is still an edp, which means the purity or concentratin levels have to be within a certain range

It's taken me awhile to warm up to Iridescent and now I'm head over heals for this little gem. It still has the slight edginess of the original but it's been toned downed and softened in all the right places. Nezzabel wrote w/such accurate detail about the notes that you don't really need that part from me. I just had to speak to the softness of this beauty. This is what I had hoped every other offering from this house would be. So~if like me the harshness of the originals has been an issue for your skin~run to give this version a try. I feel like I finally have a glimpse into what everyone has been raving about for years!It is a beautiful cloud of floral musk w/ some golden basenotes that make you feel as if you're wearing the glorious aura of a sunset. You can still smell the flowers in the air from the heat of the day and the fragrance of Iridescent coming off of your skin signals that everything is a possibility. Dinner, dancing, snuggling,having a group of friends over, on a cruise or vacation,a motorcycle ride, a day in the city or a day in the country, a boat excursion, your son's or daughter's school play , a Broadway play~any occasion that you can think of~this fragrance will be your best friend.

Very light floral musk. Sweet, but with quite a sharp dry down I find. Only ok scent but I could watch the iridescent sparkles quite literally all day.. shake the bottle, watch the otherworldly pink liquid float around itself.. fascinating to the point of hypnosis.

Iridescent fragrance is not just the Eau de Parfum (EDP, pink bottle) with some glitter on. No. Iridescent fragrance is, in fact, a summer version of the EDP.
It's a lighter, brighter and sweeter edition. It's the EDP watered down, specially when it comes to the musk and the woody notes.

It opens with a bright, full, sweet, liquorish rose that you can almost taste the nectar - maybe due to the use of the honey flower. And it has, definitely, some kind of fruity note.
Then, the orange flower and the osmanthus emerge, but they never outshine the rose, that remains full and sweet, and it's the queen of this edition.
The base notes: a suave musk note, a spark of amber, a touch of vanilla and a tiny woody accord and... voilá! A wonderful summer take on of one of the most iconic perfumes of the XXI century!

And yes, you can expect the scent of the EDP tonned down, but this is a rounder, brighter, a bit sweeter and delicate fragrance.
Don't expect the sillage or the staying power of the EDP - Iridescent fragrance is a summer version and a skinscent. Even though I can't complaint about the sillage (everytime I wore it, everyone seemed to appreciate it and complimented me about it, wich is not very usual for me). The staying power is ok - about 5 hours.

The bottle is great: it's the same bottle of Narciso Rodriguez For Her, with a pink cap but with a clear glass bottle. Though, it looks like the one on the picture once you shake the bottle.

The glitter/shimmer is very discreet: only you will notice it and barely... no one around you will actually see it!

Have in mind that Iridescent fragrance is a very soft scent, almost like a veil and really delicate.
It's very feminine and it's still a sexy scent, even though here the musk is cleaner and the woody notes are transparent. I believe it's a great scent for the summer time, specially for the lovers of Narciso Rodriguez For Her, as myself.
And it may be a summer version of it, but it hasn't lost the magic of the original.

... And this is why Francis Kurkdjian is one of my favourite noses! Merci Francis!=)

i love this new version....
