Iris Silver Mist (for women and men)

Designer: Serge Lutens Olfactive Group: Floral Woody Musk
Iris Silver Mist is one of the few fragrances created, not by Christopher Sheldrake, but other perfumer - Maurice Roucel. A note of the moist earth and raw iris go through the whole composition. Sounds powerful and unusual. Basic notes of the composition includes: orrisroot, galbanum, cedar, sandalwood, clove, vetiver, musk, Chinese benzoin, incese and white amber. Raw earthy iris emerges at the very beginning, surrounded by spices and green moss. Cold elegant metal accord of this mysterious and noble flower blends in with resin and woody notes of the base, thus completely justifying the name – Silver Mist. The perfume was created in 1994.

Is the disinclination to ship to America due to anti-American sentiment? Does Guerlain also not send some of their classics to America? I have been reading about classic scents and I'm surprised that many aren't available, even on the net.

Pity this fragrance didn't work for me. I smell something that is not compatible with each other, as if some notes were separate, not blended together well. For this reason I have an impression that it smells of pickled cucumbers mixed with sweet ripe pears. My nose cannot stand this strange "edible" mixture. Where is the iris?...

I really like this stuff...and I am going to have to find a way to get it, since goddamn Serge doesn't ship to the USA...this is probably the best iris fragrance around...although L'Artisans Iris Pallida is pretty nice as well...it does kind of remind me of a funeral home somehow...it is sort of gloomy smelling...but that is how I am feeling these days...can something be sad and lovely at the same time? I guess so....

I am having difficulties to agree with this one. First it smells like fresh carrots, nothing wrong with carrots, even if I´m not sure I want to smell like one. After the carrots has gone, there is lingering smoke, something earthy and something mych to acrid for my taste. Remind me actually a little of China White, but not that strong, I can wear it, but I don´t think I will get used to this one. Will give it another try tough, sometimes fragrances change due to bodychemistry and weather and so on...

Extremely woody Iris with incense. Makes me think I may not like the Iris scents so much after all. It’s not exactly harsh, but it’s not terribly soothing either. Seems aloof and unfriendly somehow

For me Maurice Roucel's Iris is one of most beautiful Iris - this flower is in full blossom, with cool velveteen petals. You can also smell an earthy wetness of the iris roots. Very long lasting!

Another Iris scent, that I like a lot, created by Jean-Claude Ellena, The Different Company Bois d`Iris.
