Ormonde Jayne Vanille d'Iris is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Geza Schoen. Vanille d'Iris opens with Carrot Seeds, Bergamot, Pink Pepper, and Coriander, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Orris, Magnolia, and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Vetiver. Ormonde Jayne's Vanille d'Iris carries an Acquired verdict, a powdery-led wear.

This one's a sublime, subtle iris, often likened to vintage make-up, with a gentle vanilla backdrop. It’s either a discreet masterpiece that lasts for ages on fabric, or a fleeting skin scent. A beautifully blended, artistic creation, if not always a powerhouse.

Its subtle projection and clean, sophisticated character make it ideal for office wear, where it won't overwhelm.

Its understated elegance might be lost in very formal settings, and it's certainly not suited for sport.

About

Vanille d'Iris opens with a unique earthy-spicy kick from carrot seeds, coriander, and pink pepper. This quickly mellows, giving way to a powdery, sophisticated iris heart, reminiscent of high-end cosmetics, beautifully complemented by creamy magnolia and osmanthus. A soft, non-sweet vanilla then emerges in the dry-down, intertwining with musky cedar, vetiver, and amber, creating a serene, close-wearing scent.
