Description
The story behind this fragrance
Black Iris opens with sharp cardamom and bright bergamot threading through a green geranium stem, then softens into iris's powdered violet heart—earthy carrot seeds and creeping vanilla warmth underneath. Amberwood and cedarwood anchor it low, grounding the whole composition in dry, resinous wood that lets the iris breathe without softness taking hold. There's an androgynous, almost mineral quality to it: powder without perfume, earth without musk.
