Essential Parfums VELVET IRIS Eau de Parfum by Dominique Ropion
An ode to the velvety petals of the iris – sensual, woody, and infinitely elegant
Essential Parfums VELVET IRIS Eau de Parfum is a tribute to one of perfumery’s most noble flowers. In the hands of Dominique Ropion, master perfumer of timeless icons, the iris transforms into a luxurious niche perfume that is woody, carnal, and modern. It is a fragrance that balances refinement and sensuality, revealing the iris in all its complexity: creamy, powdery, luminous, and endlessly seductive.
A luminous opening
Everything begins with a breath of spicy freshness that rises like the proud stem of the iris. Pink pepper and turmeric leaf electrify the composition, enhancing the aromatic greenness of buchu leaf. This vibrancy is balanced by the crisp brightness of galbanum and the resinous depth of lentisque, creating an opening that feels alive, textured, and full of energy. From the very first spray, VELVET IRIS by Essential Parfums establishes its bold character with elegance and clarity.
The carnal heart of iris
At the center lies the precious iris concrete, one of perfumery’s most treasured materials. Gradually warming on the skin, it unveils carnal inflections both creamy and powdery, giving the fragrance its distinctive sensual signature. Here the iris reveals itself as more than a delicate flower – it becomes textured, tactile, and deeply human. Essential Parfums VELVET IRIS captures this duality: majestic yet intimate, refined yet warmly embracing.
Depth, texture, and a hypnotic drydown
As the fragrance evolves, sensuality blooms softly into a languorous drydown. Sandalwood lends milky richness, while the warmth of labdanum deepens the base. The modern vibration of Saffiano™ – an innovative IFF molecule combining the power of leather with the softness of suede – adds a contemporary twist. This balance of strength and softness results in a hypnotic trail, elegant and infinitely carnal. When worn, VELVET IRIS reveals its power with a caressing touch, like velvet against the skin.
