Iris Shot

by Dominique Ropion

Olfactive Studio Iris Shot is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Dominique Ropion. Iris Shot opens with Cardamom, Pink Pepper, Aldehydes, and Redcurrant Leaf, settles into a heart of Iris, Almond, and Carrot Seeds, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Cedar, and Ambroxan. Olfactive Studio's Iris Shot carries a Favourite verdict, a powdery-led wear.

This isn't just an iris, it's a 'shot' of elegant, grown-up almond-iris. Divisive for some who crave classic powdery iris, but a sophisticated, creamy dream for those who want something unique and restrained.

About

Iris Shot opens with a surprising zing of cardamom and pink pepper, brightened by aldehydes, before settling into a soft, powdery heart of iris. The star here is a nuanced almond, which lends a creamy, almost marzipan-like sweetness without becoming cloying. Carrot seeds add an earthy, slightly vegetal touch, while a base of vetiver, cedar, and ambroxan provides a subtle woody depth and a luxurious, 'leather-suede' finish.
