Prada Infusion d'Iris Absolue is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Daniela Andrier. Infusion d'Iris Absolue opens with Neroli and Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of Mastic and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Benzoin.

A truly gorgeous take on iris, elevating it with warmth and sweetness, though some find it a touch heavy or surprisingly similar to its siblings. Its discontinued status stirs up strong feelings and prompts frantic searching.

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.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Prada Infusion d'Iris Absolue opens with a delicate whisper of orange blossom and neroli, quickly giving way to a powdery, rooty iris heart. This is softened and sweetened by a creamy vanilla and benzoin base, rounded off with a gentle musk. It feels luxurious, warm, and sophisticated, a comforting embrace that lingers elegantly on the skin.
