By the editors · 2 min readDialogs opens cool and slightly austere — lily of the valley led by lemon and bergamot, with violet adding a powdery, almost retro lift. The first impression is restrained, not sweet.
The heart is where the composition gets interesting: vetiver and patchouli ground a floral middle of ylang-ylang, iris, and rose, pulling what would otherwise be a straightforward bouquet toward a chypre-adjacent territory. Iris keeps the texture dry and a little metallic.
It finishes on a clean musk, leaving more of the heart's earthiness than the florals on the skin. A poised, slightly serious composition with the green-and-earthy backbone Eastern bloc perfumery returned to often through the 80s.
