L'Iris is the first eau de parfum by the brand Santa Maria Novella. This fragrance captures the essence of time, honoring Florence and its profound connection with the flower that remains its symbol to this day. The perfume belongs to the green-floral-powdery fragrance family, offering a bouquet that is both delicate and vibrant. The bottle conveys the luxury of Santa Maria Novella's perfumery, which has been crafting its scents since as far back as 1221. This incredibly precious raw material is obtained after six years of decanting the iris rhizomes, cultivated on the Florentine hills. L'Iris eau de parfum unveils a floral tapestry, where the rare concentrate of Florentine iris stands as the precious gem.
Top notes of galbanum captivate with their green freshness, stimulating the unveiling of the following notes in the composition, including the spicy, citrus accent of Timur pepper. Following this, neroli adds floral tenderness and a light bitterness to the fragrance's sound.
Heart notes open with the spicy freshness of geranium, complemented by the sweet floral note of champaca magnolia, while jasmine sambac in this luxurious bouquet reveals itself with sensual warmth and tenderness.
Base notes of musk emphasize the warm and sensual aspect of the fragrance, while grey amber unfolds with deep marine notes, lending the composition elegance and a long-lasting trail.
