How to choose a fragrance for a first date
A first date is like a little performance where every detail matters. Clothes, tone of voice, glance...
Drops Barcelona Iris & Raspberry is a women's eau de toilette, released in 2014 and included in the Drops Collection Woman.
This is an expressive fruity-floral fragrance with a soft sweet and woody nuance, created for those who love noticeable compositions with character.
The release reflects the aesthetics of Drops Barcelona: energetic, modern and free from strict rules.
In the scent of Iris & Raspberry, juicy berry expressiveness, the powdery elegance of iris and a deep warm background are combined, thanks to which the fragrance easily stands out among typical floral compositions.
At the heart of the composition is a contrast between a fresh fruity intonation and noble floral softness.
The fragrance does not seem frivolous: behind the attractive sweetness, dry woody nuances and balsamic depth gradually appear.
The perfumer Toni Cabal worked on the formula.
His approach makes Iris & Raspberry both romantic and composed: it is not just a berry fragrance, but a more voluminous composition with noticeable development on the skin.
Iris & Raspberry is positioned as a women's perfume and will especially appeal to fans of fruity, floral, sweet and woody fragrances.
It fits well into spring and autumn looks, and on cool summer evenings it sounds especially expressive.
Due to its very strong sillage, the eau de toilette should be applied sparingly: usually one or two sprays on the skin are enough for the composition to unfold noticeably but not become excessively intense.
The manufacturer does not provide data on the exact dosage on skin and clothing, so it is better to adjust the intensity taking into account temperature, space and personal sensitivity.
This fragrance is suitable for walks, meetings, parties and situations when you want to add brightness to your look.
Its recognizable combination of raspberry and iris may appeal to those who are looking for a feminine composition with a strong presence and a warm aftertaste.
As reference points for getting acquainted with a similar mood, you can consider Nina Ricci L'Air du Temps, Sonia Rykiel Le Parfum and Nina Ricci L`Air du Temps Noel.
At the same time, Iris & Raspberry retains its own individuality due to a more noticeable berry accent, powdery iris and a rich woody-balsamic base.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The top note of the composition is raspberry, which starts it off with a juicy, sweet-fruity and alluring accord.
At the heart, iris unfolds, adding powdery softness, floral elegance and a light coolness to the scent.
The base consists of benzoin and vetiver: the first gives the composition a warm balsamic nuance, while the second adds dry woody expressiveness.
The result is a fruity-floral fragrance with soft sweetness and noticeable depth.
The Iris & Raspberry pyramid is built on the contrast of a bright berry opening, a noble iris heart and a long-lasting woody-balsamic finish.
