Fragonard Iris is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2016. Iris opens with Citron and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Violet and Heliotrope, and dries down to a base of Iris and Tonka Bean. Fragonard's Iris carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This isn't a true iris soliflore, but a soft, powdery floral musk that's perfect for low-key days. It's a fresh, versatile, and understated choice if you like a classic feel.

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.

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

Opens with a bright, herbal burst of citron and bergamot, clean and invigorating. As it settles, a gentle floral heart emerges, with powdery violet and a touch of sweet heliotrope adding a soft, almost cosmetic feel. The dry down is a discreet blend of clean iris and warm tonka bean, leaving a subtle, comforting skin scent that whispers rather than shouts.
