Hello,
Funny they didn’t mention the mother of all iris scents-Iris Silver Mist. And FM hand cream, which is a dead ringer for ISM. It’s a good article-I love the elegance of the iris 🙂
I hear ISM is quite changed. It used to be in my top 5 iris scents, but I do not even want to smell a new version — would prefer to live with the memory, ha.
Enjoyed reading about iris, one of my favorite notes!
I’m glad!
