Les Eaux Primordiales Iris Palladium is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Amélie Bourgeois and Arnaud Poulain. Iris Palladium opens with Lavender, Cardamom, and Coriander, settles into a heart of Iris, Violet, and Mugwort, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Guaiac Wood. Les Eaux Primordiales's Iris Palladium carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

Prepare for a sweet, spicy iris that's drawing strong comparisons to Gris Charnel - for better or worse. If you love a creamy sandalwood vanilla with a touch of purple floral powder, this is a crowd-pleaser that delivers warmth and comfort.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

About

Iris Palladium opens with a fresh, aromatic burst of cardamom and lavender, hinting at something cool before quickly settling into a creamy, powdery heart. The namesake iris and violet create a soft, cosmetic-like floral texture, beautifully blended with warm amber and a prominent, sweet vanilla-sandalwood base. Expect a smooth, enveloping dry down with woody depth and a persistent, comforting sweetness.
