New Signature Layering Scent?

Friday is a casual day at work, so I thought I'd try something new. This blend layers the bright, classic fougère structure of Creed Green Irish Tweed over the rich, powdery iris heart of Dior Homme, creating a surprisingly cohesive and elegant evolution.

Top (Green Irish Tweed): Lemon verbena and crisp iris leaves open with a fresh, green, slightly citrus brightness—like stepping into cool morning air in a manicured garden. The violet leaf adds a subtle aquatic-green nuance that keeps everything lively and clean.

Heart (transition): As the top fades, the violet leaf bridges perfectly into Dior Homme’s star player: a soft, luxurious iris note with a delicate lipstick-powder facet. The iris feels cool and refined, supported by a touch of lavender from GIT and a whisper of cardamom, lending a clean, almost barbershop elegance.

Base (Dior Homme): The drydown reveals warm cocoa, velvety iris root, soft amber, and a smooth leather-vetiver foundation. The earthy vetiver from Green Irish Tweed lingers underneath, grounding the powdery sweetness so the fragrance never becomes cloying. The result is a sophisticated balance: fresh-green and airy up top, then gradually richer, warmer, and more intimate as the cocoa and iris take center stage.

Overall, the citrus-green freshness of Green Irish Tweed acts as a sparkling introduction that prevents Dior Homme from feeling too heavy or makeup-like, while Dior Homme’s creamy, powdery depth gives the classic fougère a modern, sensual finish that lasts all day. It’s polished, versatile, and distinctly refined—perfect for someone who wants to smell effortlessly expensive from morning meetings to evening drinks.
