I am rather excited at the combo of Figue-Iris.
Posted by: Jennifer | February 11, 2008
It does sound good.
Both combos sound more audacious than usual while drawing at the same time of pre-tested "unusual" notes.

Just tried both. They got released today in Canada and I was waiting for both. I much prefer Figue-Iris which has more of a grown-up feel. Softly woody and powdery, it lingers for a long time. I feel in love with it. As for Laurier-Réglisse, I am very disappointed. I am a Jicky user and I expected something more anis-y and woody, a bit in the same line as Jicky. It smells like a bowl of lemon jelly beans. It has a teenage-feel. To me, it does not have the Guerlain spirit. I will definitely get Figue-Iris, though.

I am glad you found a new love. I'd have to agree that Figue-Iris has more affinities with a classic Guerlain than Laurier-Réglisse. And as it turns out it is attributed to Jean-Paul Guerlain.
