I thought I'd revisit these revamped releases of the les exclusifs, not that I paid them enough notice in the first place to get any discernible difference but hey. Now something about Iris and Ylang Ylang (individually) is really working for me recently, Iris isn't a shock but ylang is, as it wasn't usually something I'd say I enjoy. The opening is green, slightly musky, floral but not overtly and has the smooth exoticism you'd expect. The drydown is pretty woody and with a delicate hint of earthiness from patchouli showing yet another example of just what a great perfumer Polge is...although was it his son who did this? Anyway...Do not be fooled by the notes because this is not a typical experience nor is Rue Cambon a typical Chypre in the sense that it's very unisex, and quite woodsy in the drydown. It sits quite low but you can smell it and lasts pretty well, I really liked it.
