About

Iris Dragées opens with a whisper of bright bergamot and a hint of pink pepper before settling into its sweet, powdery heart. The prominent iris is softened by sugared almond and a touch of orange blossom, creating an almost gourmand, confectionery feel. The drydown melts into a fluffy vanilla musk, grounded by a subtle woody orris, giving it a comforting, clean finish.
