Chopard Iris Malika is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Dora Baghriche. Iris Malika opens with Red Fruits, Spicy Notes, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Iris, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Tonka Bean, Benzoin, and Peru Balsam. Chopard's Iris Malika carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This perfume is a divisive one. You'll either adore its "expensive lipstick" vibe and syrupy dark fruit, or find it an overwhelming, dated powder bomb. Definitely not a safe blind buy, as some find it intoxicating and others, headache-inducing.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong projection and long-lasting nature, Iris Malika is too potent for most office settings. It excels in intimate date nights or formal events, where its luxurious and bold character can truly shine without overpowering. It's less suited for casual wear or sport due to its density.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Iris Malika opens with a bold flourish of spicy red fruits, like a rich, dark berry liqueur touched with pink pepper. This vibrant start quickly settles into a heart where a creamy, powdery iris takes centre stage, beautifully interwoven with sweet jasmine and exotic ylang-ylang, creating a distinct, make-up reminiscent aroma. The base provides a luxurious depth with warm, resinous benzoin and Peru balsam, rounded out by creamy tonka bean and a subtle woody embrace, giving it a sensual, lingering finish.
