{"title":"Iris perfumes","description":"\u003cp\u003eIris in perfume is the scent of a root, not a flower: cool, powdery, earthy and a little buttery, with a violet-like elegance. It gives a composition a soft, cosmetic texture and calms sweet or woody notes. These are the perfumes in our collection that list iris, orris or iris butter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe root, not the petal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe material called iris, orris or iris butter comes from the rhizome, the underground root, of certain irises. The roots are aged for a long time before they are processed, and the finished extract is waxy, which is why the pure material is called a butter. Its scent is powdery, cool and earthy, with a violet-like facet from a molecule called irone. Pyramids use several terms: iris, orris, orris roots, iris roots, iris butter and orris butter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat it does in a composition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIris is usually a heart note, and it works as a texture as much as a smell. It adds a powdery, suede-like softness, and it separates sweet notes from woods. It pairs naturally with violet, rose and musks for an elegant, cosmetic mood, with leather and woods for a dry, dressed-up one, and with vanilla or amber for a creamy, powdery warmth. In small doses it adds polish; in large ones it leads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIris perfumes in the collection\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/ex-nihilo-iris-porcelana-eau-de-parfum-50ml\"\u003eEx Nihilo Iris Porcelana\u003c\/a\u003e is the most direct: violet leaves at the top, iris and rose in the heart, sandalwood, musks and cedarwood below. \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/ex-nihilo\"\u003eEx Nihilo\u003c\/a\u003e files it as floral and powdery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/les-eaux-primordiales-iris-palladium-eau-de-parfum-100ml\"\u003eLes Eaux Primordiales Iris Palladium\u003c\/a\u003e is described by \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/les-eaux-primordiales\"\u003eLes Eaux Primordiales\u003c\/a\u003e as creamy, sensual iris and sandalwood, with cardamom, lavender and cilantro on top, mugwort, violet and iris in the heart, and sandalwood, vanilla, guaiac wood, amber, benzoin and cedar below.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/maison-crivelli-iris-malikhan-eau-de-parfum-100ml\"\u003eMaison Crivelli Iris Malikhân\u003c\/a\u003e has no pyramid: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/maison-crivelli\"\u003eMaison Crivelli\u003c\/a\u003e lists orris butter with cypress, lentisque, galbanum, mimosa, vanilla, a leather accord, amber and musks, and calls it powdery gourmand leather.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/fascent-red-flag-eau-de-parfum-30ml\"\u003eFascent Red Flag\u003c\/a\u003e pairs iris with frankincense in the heart, between cardamom, beetroot accord and ginger and a base of tonka bean, Palo Santo wood, vetiver and patchouli. \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fascent\"\u003eFascent\u003c\/a\u003e calls it woody, earthy iris.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/amouage-interlude-black-iris-man-eau-de-parfum-100ml\"\u003eAmouage Interlude Black Iris Man\u003c\/a\u003e puts orris in the heart with amber, frankincense, cistus, myrrh and vanilla, beneath bergamot, rosemary and violet leaves, above leather, agarwood smoke, patchouli, sandalwood and cedarwood.
