Yesterday Haze, the subtly sinister follow-up to Lenora Blumberg's acclaimed debut Violet Disguise, tells the story of a farmer's wife who, after maintaining a decades-long affair with a crop-duster pilot, decides to come clean to her husband, who also happens to be her lover's employer. "Just as sunsets are more beautiful on hazy days," Blumberg wrote, "so, too, are the memories of yesterday." Set in California's tranquil and dusty San Joaquin Valley, the elaborate tale unfolds like a dream, delicately shifting perceptions like the colors of a dimming dusk.
WHEN TO WEAR: The seductive, dreamlike quality of this scent works like a magnet. Use it liberally during the day and, as it lingers into night, watch as those around you are lured into your sphere.
NOTES: Fig, iris, cream, tonka, tree bark, walnut bitters, orchard dust

Smells like a baby on me.
Literally I don't know what I thought it would smell like, but I only get notes of Diaper/baby powder which is not a sexy scent.

Yesterday Haze
I wish that this smelled as good on me as it does on other reviewers who get the fig, cream and walnut. On me, it's all sharp, musky-floral iris and a dusty, powdery drydown. After 2 hours, it just smells like I sprayed myself with baby powder.

A wear anywhere scent
This scent is like an old friend. The minute you spray it on you realize you've been missing it. I'll wear it in fall and winter. The walnut in here is a gem.

Creamy and delicious
Iris can be a tricky note with my chemistry, it quite often overpowers any other notes. I am happy to say it does NOT in this case! This is a beautiful creamy, woody scent that I am enjoying....I keep smelling my wrist over and over! the longevity is insane, I could smell it on my pillow the next day!!! I think I may actually have to purchase this one I think it would be perfect on a cold, cuddly winter day.
