Iris & powdery, 1905: Root trade · 450
Choose Iris & powdery by the note, not by the bottle photo. “Root trade” in 1905 titles that note, and 1905 is strength or time. Shop lighting is not lasting power. Après l’Ondée (1906–, France) is still the story a counter tells when this family needs a name.
Iris & powdery sits in the Bloom group of this atlas. Flower families — mixed bouquets, white petals, rose, jasmine, iris powder and fruit nectar. Orris butter and violet dust — lipstick, suede and the most expensive quiet in the lab. Concentration is oil in alcohol, not a quality score. EDT (about 5–15%) shows more top; EDP (about 15–20%) shows more heart and base. Houses vary; this is not a lab assay.
One or two sprays on skin or cloth — sternum or hair, not a cloud in a lift. Let it turn an hour before you add more. Cool months. Heat turns powder into glue. Yes. Warm, moist skin amplifies sweet and spice; dry or cool skin can turn the same juice woody, soapy or short. Test on your skin, not only a blotter.
IFRA sets industry limits on some naturals and synthetics. A reformulation is usually a legal edit, not a betrayal. This atlas is not a safety sheet. Any ethics or materials I should know? Read the materials chapter for the actual load. Niche and designer often share a family and disagree on dose.
On the blotter, keep 1905, “Root trade,” and 1905. Without them Iris & powdery blurs.1905
