About
Iralia is dsm-firmenich's blend of methylionones. It smells of violet and orris as cosmetic powder, carried on a full floral body, with a woody undertone and a small fruity lift.
Scent Profile
Iralia smells rich and deeply floral, violet and orris carried as a cosmetic powder. The powdery facet is almost as strong as the floral itself. A woody undertone runs quietly underneath. A small, delicate fruity hint shows at the edges.
