Maison Crivelli Iris Malikhân is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Marc Zini. Iris Malikhân opens with Mastic, Cypress, and Galbanum, settles into a heart of Iris, Mimosa, Pink Pepper, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Leather, Amber, and Vanilla. Maison Crivelli's Iris Malikhân carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a wild ride. Expect a polarising opening that settles into a luxurious, buttery iris and vanilla dream. If you can get past the initial green bitterness, you'll be rewarded with something truly special, but it's definitely not for everyone.

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.

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.

About

Iris Malikhân kicks off with a sharp, green zing of galbanum and cypress, offering a surprisingly vegetal and even rooty iris. This initial intensity soon mellows into a creamy, almost buttery iris, softened by a rich, grown-up vanilla. A subtle leather and aromatic spice weave through, adding depth and a touch of earthiness, preventing it from ever becoming overtly sweet or purely floral. The dry-down retains this unique balance, leaving a sophisticated, warm, and comforting trail.
