Aedes de Venustas Iris Nazarena is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Ralf Schwieger. Iris Nazarena opens with Iris and Juniper, settles into a heart of Leather, Rose, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Woody, Amber, Vetiver, and Incense. Aedes de Venustas's Iris Nazarena carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is a truly magnificent Iris, dark and brooding, with a sophisticated earthiness that transcends gender. While some find it challenging and say it leans mature, for many, it's a masterpiece of understated elegance and quality. Definitely a "must-try for any Iris lover."

About

Iris Nazarena opens with a bold, earthy iris, underpinned by fresh juniper. As it settles, a rich, realistic leather emerges, intertwined with a touch of clove spice and delicate rose. The drydown is a deeply sophisticated union of vetiver, warm woods, amber, and a smoky incense, creating a dry, rooty, and subtly musky finish that lasts for ages.
