About this deal

Infusión d'homme was an Edy and It lasted on me more than 6 hour. This one, however, being an edp doesnt last more than 4 hours and It sdisappear from clothes fast too. I dont know why but the longevity os a bit worse Heart notes:Iris makes the sole that relishes the delicacy and effort that has been put to make the scent plausible as a dupe. When everything else is gone, the base notesthat stand out the most are vanilla, sandalwood, and patchouli. This mixture always succeeds and has a mildly oriental odor. However, the dominant component here is patchouli. It is patchouli that smells a lot better in the air.

OSMOZ magazine Prada Infusion d'iris dupe, 5 best alternative perfumes with a similar signature 28 september 2022 As they behave as eau de colognes, I treat them as such, buy the biggest bottles I can find and oversprey frequently. Since I had mild anxiety due to almost empty bottle, I admitted defeat and promptly got Iris Cèdre. This is/was another iris scent that managed to make its way to me. I got it for a super-low price, I didn't even bother testing it out. Prada Infusion d'Iris is one fancy perfume that lives up to its powdery smooth iris-based fragrance that is soft and easy to wear. I don't think the vetiver truly leave us all and went to somewhere. I think the ashy burst is attributed by considerably high dose of white musks blend, the nice powdery notes here with a slight trace of bergamot (provides the neroli notes more citrus and floral vibe, tho it's more beautiful in IdH), along this way, you might start notice some green-scrubbing note in the white musk flood -- folks, that's one classic vetiver idiom in cologne type formulae. The base note of vetiver smells green and astringent, is a reasonable succession of all the juicy citrus top notes. Since IdH is the clash of two generation's "clean notes": cologne type and powder-soap, I think this formulation with rename implicit that cologne thingy will relatively be suppress in this reformulation -- since not all ingredients can rise their concentration in same proportion without violating IFRA regulations.The longevity, projection and availability, its all better in Iris cedre. But to me, nothing beats the original edp; theres a spicy note and complexity thats missing here. For the first five minute or so it is wonderful. The citrus notes come alive and dance off my skin. But all too soon they vanish and the incense (which I dislike) takes over along with some strange 'play-doughy' note that I guess is the iris. shwets " has a review a few below this that mentions this is quite soft and it reminds of babys heads when clean , but not with talc or nappies, just beautiful fresh washed baby head skin , lol i get that too ! like clean soft healthy skin plus other notes.

However, it wasn't until i tried Candy for the first time yesterday and today that the penny dropped. Absolute and Candy share the same base. It is a spicy amber perfume for women, created in 1998. The eau de toilette formula keeps the scent strong but not overpowering. It is the best balance of concentration and quality that makes it fit for our category of dupes of Prada infusion d'iris. Iris, an absolute natural star for producing powdery notes, is the leading player in Prada's infusion d'iris. This plant's roots are an extraordinary raw resource in perfumery. This substance gives a delicate, powdery smell that is dry and has overtones of wood and violet. It lingers on skin or clothing and has an airy, light aroma. Infusion d'Iris Cèdre is a wonderful powdery-soapy fragrance (Prada has quite a lot of experience in this kind of scent), that is very reminiscent of the original Infusion d'Iris. It is delicate and clean, with the roundness of Iris absolute playing the main role, the slight bitterness induced by the neroli and mandarin note and a touch of depth invoked by woody notes, incense, benzoin. Overall I'd qualify the whole scent as a woodier, slightly bolder Infusion d'Iris, and as a less powdery and more refined Infusion d'Homme. It is very subtle and clean, with a very airy feel to it, but without feeling too light either. The scent itself is very understated and luxurious, complex and multifaceted, and as always it retains the unisex characteristics of the previous Infusions. I just "love the smell". Iris cedre is clean, in a powder way rather than a soapy way. It starts with a sharp citrus and Iris, followed by a slightly metallic note that lingers for quite a while but i found that after a few hours the drydown is basically identical to the original, a powdery incense finish.Infusion d'Iris is a breath of very expensive smelling fresh air, in a mass market saturated with sweet patchouli candied sillage bombs. That said, it's worth a sniff for those that like the original, I have a bottle of Absolue and I enjoy it quite a bit.

Perfect for every day, work, even healthcare workers. This is something I wear when I go to the dentist, he is too nice to complain. EDIT: I was trying to decipher what that beautiful almond-ish note was exactly, and then I saw the mastic note in the ingredients listed here.And I thought yes...it is similar to mastic but...it isn't quite that... but this note was so familiar...almond-ish...mastic-y... and then it hit me!The note that gives that impression and it is the main note of this perfume is the spice mahlab. If you have ever grinded mahlab seeds and tried this perfume, you know exactly what I am talking about. The mahlab seeds when grinded they become a beautiful aromatic powder that can be used in a pastry recipe that is well known here in Greece called tsoureki that we make usually in Easter.In fact, mahleb gets combined beautiful with mastic (one ingredient compliments the other in the recipe), so it is no surprise, that the mastic is referred here. However the note is definitely mahlab! Not that they smell the same, nor do they share the same notes or anything like that, but this scent shares the same mood as Versence and, to a lesser extent, Kenzo's L'Eau Peau (I think that's what it's called). Ive never smelled infusion d'homme so i cant make a comparison, but if you like the original Iris infusion, then this is a good substitute. Its not as floral, but retains almost all of the original notes.I have spritzed this time and time again but always disappointed. It's far too powdery for my taste, veering towards the old lady type, when it was fashionable to dust on fragranced talcum body powders on warm bodies after a bath. Absolou is closer to actual face powder! If d'Iris and d'Iris Cedre are like bathing with a very fragrant expensive soap, Absolou is the same experience after you towel yourself off, get dressed, apply makeup and put on an ornate broach. That awesome Infusion d'Iris DNA is still there, and it still is kinda sorta unisex... But on the matronly side of unisex, if that makes any sense. Lingers on my skin for more than 10 hours but after the first few hours, it's already barely detectable by the people around you. A very low-key scent. Leaves a fleeting trail, noticeable but not overwhelming. Time to write a review on this old pal. I remember sampling Infusion d'Iris the first time in 2014. It was not love at first sniff, but the smell, on paper, was very distinct: iris-y, dry, woody, very "aloof" and quite "upscale". I had no desire to own a bottle. For me, the relationship with Infusion d'Iris is contentious. Just like the relationship with my mother. Keep reading, I promise to talk more about the perfume than about my mother :)

Ohmygoshyo. It's every bit as wonderful as the original Infusion d'Iris but I'd say the Cedre version has a couple of the kinks worked out (if there are truly any kinks in the original). It's a bit smoother (than an already smooth fragrance), a bit rounder (than an already round fragrance). And oddly enough the awesome beautiful aloofness of the Iris is pushed forward more in my opinion. Really, this is closer to Chanel No 19. I might be personal bias but I think the one made in France is significantly stronger than Spain one.

It is an ideal fragrance for office, and one of my favorites for that purpose. To more appreciate this composition, one should have some gray hair. It even garners compliments in situations where compliments are rare. This is not mind blowing composition, but a very solid one in the Prada’s portfolio. Clean, sophisticated, professional and Italian. I sat on the fence with Infusion d'Iris for years because of its moderate-to-weak sillage and longevity, and because the scent itself seemed pleasant but nothing great. I returned to it recently because I've had some stresses in my life and need quieter, more subtle and undemanding fragrances (this one, NR4H, Cacharel Noa). People often complain of longevity and sillage issues, this was not created to announce itself, but to create a veil to delight and intrigue, never shout.
