This perfume is a divisive one. While many adore its ethereal, melancholic beauty, some find it too green, too rooty, or just 'meh'. It's an iris for those who like their florals with a side of earth and introspection.

About

Iris de Nuit opens with the green, slightly herbaceous whisper of angelica, leading into a heart of powdery iris and dewy violet. The unusual carrot seeds add an earthy, rooty nuance that sets it apart from typical florals. As it dries, a soft cedar and warm amber provide a subtle, lasting depth.
