Latest Reviews of Splendiris

This rides a thin line between artistic niche and dumb fruity floral gourmand with exact precision. The smallest hint of strawberry or marshmallow would have toppled Splendiris into trash territory, but a bit of sandalwood or incense would make it just snobby enough to no longer achieve that balance and the appeal it's going for. As such, I'm impressed, but as a die-hard snob, this has a level of sugary playfulness that I just don't enjoy. Points for what it is, but I'm voting neutral, but with the advice that this could be a perfect iris for people who usually don't like chalky or austere iris perfumes.

It's ethereal and slightly wistful but optimistic. At first spritz there is a burst of powdery orris mixed with the creamy violet. The orris abates and then the ambergris becomes evident as well giving her some added vibrance. There is slight muskiness to her bouquet as well. It triggers a lot of love and cuddles need feelings when you long for an innocent moment with the one you love.
