Chance

Jasmine opens onto a heart of iris, set on patchouli, vetiver and vanilla. The iris keeps the floral clear of candy, making it a daytime scent more than an evening one.

La Vie Est Belle

Iris and praline: the noble meets the gourmand. Openly sweet, but held by a floral framework that keeps it from turning to candy.
