Velvet Iris

Velvet Iris, a woody, powdery and leathery eau de parfum by Essential Parfums. A carnal interpretation of iris, an ode to its velvety petals.

Woody powdery leathery

It all begins with a spicy freshness where pink pepper and turmeric leaf electrify buchu, aromatic and herbaceous. The crisp greenness of galbanum and mastic counterbalances the precious iris concrete, which warms on the skin into creamy, powdery inflections. The base, carnal, weaves the milky notes of sandalwood, the warmth of labdanum and the suede-leather of Saffiano. A creation by Dominique Ropion.

I imagined this iris as a velvet against the skin. Pink pepper and buchu make it vibrate, galbanum gives it its greenness, then creamy, amber woods embrace it. Velvet Iris is that carnal caress you keep close to you. - Dominique Ropion
