Here's another snap of my #yellow #iris #flower. I'm happy to report that it smells as good as the purple one, although the scent is slightly different! Just as sweet, but with more of a earthy honey note, with hints of overripe fruit. The purple iris smelled like a floral laundry detergent – lovely but very sweet. But here's a confession: the scent of peonies beats both in my n̶o̶s̶e̶ eyes


(I swear I'm not a creep who's buying used petals on the internet)

I must try and find some peonies to smell! The honey note sounds so delicious though! ✨
They were so good! 🤤 You know, I actually put a reminder in my phone to smell the yellow iris, so I wouldn't forget. 😂 Glad I did because I didn't expect them to smell differently! Next, I must get a whiff off the foxgloves, to see what the fuzz (pun intended) is all about. (Um, maybe I should remove the note about not being a creep 🙈)
Hahaha! Yes, I think Irises are really overlooked when it comes to flower scents - they are so lovely though! Do report back what the foxgloves smell like! I'm so invested! 😂 No, you're not a creep - you're doing ✨field research ✨
Yes, yes, research! 👀 😂🫡
