Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Iris Poudre lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Iris Poudre.

Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Iris Poudre's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $23 it costs 92% less than Iris Poudre.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
