Third Eye Fragrance Co. Iris Obsidian is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Will Southard. Iris Obsidian opens with Violet, Pepper, and Elemi, settles into a heart of Orris, Saffron, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Leather, Vanilla, and Tobacco. Third Eye Fragrance Co.'s Iris Obsidian carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

This isn't your average iris. Forget dainty and demure; Iris Obsidian is a brooding, smoky beast of a fragrance. It's divisive, with some finding it redundant and others hailing it as a unique, dark masterpiece. Definitely not a blind buy, but for those who love an unapologetically edgy scent, it's a must-try.

About

Opens with a cool, peppery violet leading into a rich, almost buttery orris heart. As it develops, a smouldering incense weaves through, joined by a soft, worn-in leather and a dry, realistic tobacco leaf. A hint of vanilla adds a deep, resinous warmth, rounding out the dark, smoky amber base without ever becoming overly sweet. Think less 'pretty floral' and more 'noble in a mist-shrouded manor'.
