STORY
Cedre Iris is that rare bird – a 100% equal partnership between delicate iris pallida and a
material that would normally eat it for breakfast, namely a tough, resinous cedarwood. Well, three
types of cedarwood, to be exact, the combination of which gives the composition a complex woody
profile that darts between smoky, leathery, balsamic, and spicy. But in Cedre Iris, the tension
between the heavy cedarwood and the ephemeral orris is held tight, allowing the cool, waxen orris
to float serenely over the very material that would normally subsume it. The payoff of this
impressive balancing act is a fragrance that highlights both the exquisitely powdery sheen of iris
and the spicy thickness of cedar.
