It's splashing again
"Iris Fauve" was another giveaway from @Julia142. Also for it many thanks!
When I smell the container and shortly after spraying it on, I actually smell iris. A very nice dark iris note, which is about the same as the iris absolute I have.
But what is it? After a few minutes, it makes a strong pat! The iris is still perceptible, but it fades very much into the background. Instead, an intense patchouli note dominates. Since I don't like too intense patchouli, this will definitely not be my favorite scent. I can also relate to the slight animalicness that was brought up in another comment. But for the most part, it's patchouli. Of the Haitian vetiver, on the other hand, which I appreciate very much, I notice very little, unfortunately. At most, it is hinted at.
The fragrance is objectively not bad. Who likes intense patchouli, he wears certainly like (hello @Ragadoodles?). For me, less would have been more here.
Another word about the fragrance twins. How can you get the idea to list the wonderful "Splendiris" here? The iris works there quite differently, and patchouli is missing in the fragrance - to my happiness - completely. The two have nothing to do with each other in my opinion.
