Velvet Iris by Essential Parfums

Velvet Iris by Essential Parfums is a new Woody Floral Musk fragrance for women and men, launched in 2025. Created by renowned perfumer Dominique Ropion, this sophisticated composition explores the distinctive character of iris and orris through a carefully structured blend of fresh, spicy, green, resinous, woody and leather facets.

The fragrance opens with Buchu or Agathosma, Pink Pepper and Tamarind, develops into a heart of Orris, Iris, Galbanum and Mastic or Lentisque, and settles into a base of Saffiano Leather, Sandalwood and Labdanum.

The Character of Velvet Iris

The composition is completed by woody, leather and balsamic facets, giving Velvet Iris its distinctive contemporary identity.
