Xerjoff Irisss is a Parfum launched in 2008, created by Jacques Flori. Irisss opens with Carrot Seeds, Bergamot, and Carnation, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Iris, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Vetiver, and Incense. Xerjoff's Irisss carries an Acquired verdict, a powdery-led wear.

This is a serious, opulent iris, and it's not for everyone. While a consensus champion for iris devotees, those new to the note might find its earthy, rooty profile challenging. Prepare for true luxury, but consider a sample first - your wallet will thank you.

About

Irisss opens with an earthy and slightly vegetal hit of carrot seeds and bergamot, quickly followed by a powdery, almost waxy iris that dominates the heart. Violet and a subtle carnation add a softly floral, vintage makeup-bag quality, while an undertone of cedar, vetiver, and incense grounds the whole composition. It's a clean, sophisticated take on iris, with a noticeable creamy powderiness.
