Zirh Ikon Eau De Toilette Men Zirh Ikon 125 ml

Product Information

In mid-development, it releases a decent quality of resinous labdanum. You must pay close attention but cinnamon bark and clove buds are also detectable in IKON. Actually, no matter how hard I try, I get no powdery vibe of orris, at least not during this stage.

It starts with a light, fresh lemon-ginger blend note. There is a speedy transition from citrus freshness to spicy and aromatic notes of green cardamom and artemisia. But still, I’m happy to report Ikon is much better than I imagined it would be. Ikon starts with a light, fresh lemon-ginger note. There is a speedy transition from citrus freshness to notes of cardamom, cedar and decent-quality frankincense. You must pay close attention but cinnamon and clove are also detectable in Ikon. Ikon, in mid-development, reminds me of the Comme des Garçons Incense Series fragrances (but Ikon is lighter, softer, more reserved than those perfumes). The base notes of Ikon smell exactly as I thought they would: vanillic, amber-y and musky (Ikon verges on ‘powdery’ too at the end of its development). Overall, Ikon is an appealing, mid-strength, mainstream wood-incense fragrance. Since I could smell no iris in Ikon, I layered it with Prada Infusion d’Homme (one spray of Ikon for every three sprays of Infusion d’Homme) and the resulting mix smelled good. Ikon also layers well with rose and jasmine soliflores. Zirh Ikon marries spicy, smoky incense and clean-feeling, soapy elements; the result is a wearable, versatile, well-layered blend that qualifies as a tasteful everyman scent with gentle performance to match.
