Hiram Green Moon Bloom Review

I am not one that really layers perfume but I think that I did find a combination that might work out for most people. If you are someone who has a love of iris dominant perfumes, this is probably really up your alley. I always try to go by Now Smell This Friday's community project. This past Friday, was an impressionist painting type theme. Since iris seems to be painted on the regular, I wore Serge Lutens Iris Silver Mist. I have a large decant of it that I got years ago. On Saturday, I think I had applied Infusion d'iris and had the last little bits of Iris Silver Mist. It seems like the two play incredibly well together and will have to give it another go to really make sure. Infusion d'iris tames Iris Silver Mist and Iris Silver Mist amps up the iris and brings a little more bite to Infusion d'iris.

I was getting a little bored with the current lime up of what I have been wearing the snot of (Cheirosa 62, Infusion d'iris, etc), I knew it was time to give something new a shot. And that something new happens to be Hiram Green Moon Bloom. Slowly but surely I am working through those sample sets. And I am slowly working my way through some of the tuberose dominant perfumes.

Every tuberose perfume is going to be compared to Fracas and I haven't smelled Fracas in years and my decant has long evaporated. What I smell is a medicinal type of tuberose at first. The first part of the tuberose that I have described never fully goes away but it does quiet down. Then the green starts up but never takes over the tuberose. I do like green notes in perfume but it just didn't exactly play nice with the tuberose on my skin. I did expect something a little fecal or a little slutty, the tuberose was on the tame side in Moon Bloom. What was it, Tryst that I tried that was all sank but ultimately not for me? I did expect Moon Bloom to be like that. I did expect something a little longer lasting on my skin. All I was able to get was about five hours of wear with this and I did expect something a little longer lasting. I don't know what the hell happened to make this fall apart on me. I should see if Hiram Green is a house for me and that means to keep on trucking with the sample set.
