Perfumes with Iris
Iris is one of the noblest and most expensive notes in perfumery. It is extracted from the plant's rhizome after a drying process lasting several years. Orris butter has a creamy texture with powdery, carroty, violet and slightly woody nuances. The 'iris' note often evokes rice powder, old wardrobes and a certain cool aristocracy.
An iris perfume is often described as 'cold' in its first minutes — an almost mineral freshness. Then it warms on the skin and reveals its creamy, slightly woody facets. It is a note that takes time and attention to be fully appreciated.
Iris is mainly used as a heart note, the central identity of the composition. It belongs to the following olfactory families: Floral, Floral Chypre, Floral Oriental, Floral Water, Floral Aldehydic, Floral Woody — floral notes run through almost every olfactory family and act as a bridge between lightness and depth. At BrazaScent, Born to Stand Out, Nishane, Stéphanie de Bruijn and 2 other houses use this note in 5 compositions available as decants.
BrazaScent offers 5 decants featuring iris, including Black Creme, Hundred Silent Ways X and Royal Secret. Each decant is available in 2ml, 5ml, 10ml or 30ml, drawn directly from the original bottle. It's the fairest way to try this note on your skin before investing in a full bottle.
