Lostmarc’h Iroaz ~ fragrance review

Posted by Jessica on 19 April 2013 11 Comments

Dune roses

When I was recently compiling my list of Top 10 Spring Fragrances 2013 (a very subjective guide to what I’m wearing right now and will be wearing for next month or two), I realized that we’ve never posted a review of Lostmarc’h Iroaz; so, better late than never. Iroaz was released in 2008, and its name comes from the Breton word for “rose.” Lostmarc’h describes the fragrance as “a delicate yet wild marine rose. Rose absolute refreshed by marine aromas and red berries. The subtle and profound aroma of orris forges the link and harmonises the whole.”

Iroaz is one of those fragrances that appealed to me when I first heard about it, and I have no idea why I took four years or more to try it out and then purchase a bottle. Iroaz has never had the fan following of Lostmarc’h’s Lann Ael, which puzzles me, because it’s a well-crafted fragrance that should appeal to a range of tastes. When I sniff Iroaz from the bottle, I notice a lemony citrus note. But when I spray it on my skin, it’s an interesting blend of aquatic and peppery notes…

Top 10 Spring Fragrances 2013

Springtime Landscape, Béla Iványi-Grünwald

I can’t believe it’s been five years since my last Top Ten Spring Fragrances list, but yes, a look back confirms that fact. My tastes haven’t shifted much since then, yet I can somehow come up with plenty of new favorites. Of course, there are the fragrances that I consider part of my springtime “hall of fame”: Guerlain Apres l’Ondée and Chamade, Frederic Malle En Passant. These come into rotation every March or April, come rain or come shine (and lately, it’s been mostly rain). But, beyond these classics, I’m easily able to compile a list of other fragrances I’ve been wearing or will be wearing over the next month or two.

What to wear when the calendar says Spring, but the weather is still chilly and damp and dreary? I love to don Frederic Malle L’Eau d’Hiver during that indecisive kind of weather, perhaps because it walks a fine line between warm and cool, soft and crisp…
