I sprayed some on while passing through Bloomie's, and by the time I was 100 yards out the door, could barely smell it at all anymore. I assumed I must have sprayed too lightly, so when I got to Nordstrom's, I sprayed some more. It just doesn't last more than a few minutes on me, where Id'I lasts all day with decent sillage. In the few minutes when I could smell it, though, it smelled identical to the Id'I other than having orange blossom in place of iris. Having one, I don't need the other at all, even if it did last.

Looks like this one is shaping up to be a "love it or hate it", and more curious than ever to try it. Glad you're in the "love it" camp! Hi and welcome!

Right now I'm just trying things on. I did try a tiny dab of the LeLabo Fleur d'Oranger last night - MUCH more up my alley - fresh and green and spring-flowery - so far, anyway, it was just a tiny dab. More testing after my shower today. lol – I didn’t even ask – everything is out of my price range right now so I have to look at all that later. Right now I’m just trying things on.

I went to Nordstrom the other day because I was so hyped up about this one. I like this scent and bought the small bottle. It is a bit pricey at $74.00 but I ran out of the Iris since February. I think this one is a great summer scent for me. My husband made a comment about this one and said to me that I smelled very nice. I will get this for the summer and the Iris which I fell in love with with when it first came out for the winter. Long time reader on this sight and first time making a comment on this sight.

The prices is just outrageous though! I thought they were great, but few things in this world are that great....I mean, they're just summery colognes, after all. We liked the same Sisleys.

I was near an NM today and stopped in to get a spritz. I forget which thread we were on when I talked about there is soapy like Zest and there is soapy like fine triple-milled French soap and although this is not Zest, it is more like a mid-range hotel soap than a luxury offering. I would be better off rubbing my arm with the Orange Blossom soap I have. The initial spritz is a true delight but I could tell within seconds this was not going to fare well. I don't mind smelling freshly washed, but I do want to smell like I bothered to rinse. I'm so sad, this was my most-looked-forward-to offering of the spring. On a better note, I scent-strip-tested the 3 new Sisleys and they are very fun and springy. #1 and #3 will be getting second looks and a skin test next time I am downtown.

I love the Infusion d'Iris, love orange blossom...just worried about the soapy part, which I sometimes like & sometimes don't. Thanks for the review, it sounds worth trying at any rate!

The only bad thing is it smells really too light, i dun want my perfume permeate the whole room, but at least it can be smelled by someone who stand right next to me lol.......for the iris one, seems like i'm the only one who can smell it *sign* i love it so much I even bought the traveling size! Anyway, I tried SL's orange flower one but it smelled like the orange flower was caked by some dirt.......so now in HK, this one was finally in Prada store!!! And only 2 shops out of all the branches here have got it, sales said they will have an official launch around 21st April....but i really can't wait! So i tracked it down and it smelled just so perfect! Unlike those fruity floral scent that has flooded the market, one can barely distinguish them i guess.....this one is really special, it smells sparkling orangy at the top note, and the dried down smells kinda soapy for me, as if you just get out of a refreshing shower!!! This scent is really worth trying......and it's birthday gift for myself ;P I love orange flower, and infusion d’iris works great for me!
