Oud & Iris 50 ML

Oud & Iris

Where the ancient earth meets the celestial root.

Vibe in a Sentence: A profound and elegant dialogue between the deep, earthy soul of oud and the ethereal, powdery elegance of iris, creating a scent that is both regal and introspective, like a king in quiet contemplation.

Fragrance Notes

Top Notes (The Unveiling):

• Davana: A unique, aromatic herb with a complex scent of dried fruits, tea, and a hint of earth. It acts as a mystical bridge, preparing the palette for the duality to come.

• Saffron: A luxurious, dry, and slightly leathery spice that adds immediate depth and opulence, tying the earthy and powdery facets together from the first spray.

Heart Notes (The Celestial Dialogue):

• Orris Butter (Iris): The star. This is not a fleeting floral, but the deep, rich, and powdery scent of the iris root. It is velvety, slightly waxy, and has a noble, cosmetic-like elegance with hints of violet and carrot.

• Agarwood (Oud): A refined, woody, and slightly smoky oud. Here, it is stripped of its wildest animalic traits to reveal a polished, resonant woodiness that complements, rather than overwhelms, the delicate iris.

• Vetiver: An earthy, smoky, and rooty note that echoes the earthy side of the orris root and adds a clean, masculine counterpoint.

Base Notes (The Lasting Accord):

• Sandalwood: Creamy, soft, and milky, it provides a serene foundation that allows both the oud and iris to shine, adding a timeless woody warmth.

• Amber: A warm, glowing, vanillic accord that wraps the composition in a soft, sensual embrace and ensures incredible longevity.

• Patchouli (Light): An earthy, chocolatey depth that grounds the fragrance and enhances the root-like quality of the iris.

• White Musk: A clean, skin-like musk that blends everything seamlessly, making this grand composition feel intimate and personal.

The Vibe & Character

• Regal & Intellectual: This is a fragrance of quiet power and sophistication. It feels expensive, thoughtful, and reserved for those with refined taste.

• Ethereal & Grounded: A beautiful contradiction. The iris provides a lifted, almost otherworldly "cool" powder, while the oud and vetiver provide a deep, warm, "earthy" anchor.

• Textural & Elegant: The combination is intensely textural—imagine the feel of smooth, ancient wood against powdered velvet. It is the olfactory equivalent of quiet luxury.

• Genderless Sophistication: While leaning traditionally masculine due to the oud, the iris brings a timeless, classic elegance that makes it profoundly and beautifully unisex.

When & Where to Wear It

• Perfect for: Formal events, autumn and winter days, artistic gatherings, and any situation that demands understated elegance and confidence. It is a scent for boardrooms, galleries, and intimate dinners.

• Signature Scent for: The connoisseur, the architect, the artist, the individual who values subtlety over spectacle. It is for someone who speaks softly but carries immense presence.

• Sillage & Longevity: Moderate sillage with exceptional longevity. It creates a sophisticated, intimate aura that lasts for 12+ hours, evolving beautifully on the skin.

The Story It Tells

• The Scene: A minimalist, modern library in a centuries-old estate. A single, ancient piece of sandalwood rests on a desk next to a vintage silver powder case. The air is cool, still, and filled with the scent of wisdom and quiet wealth.

• The Persona: A modern-day Medici. A patron of the arts who is as comfortable in a dusty archive as they are in a boardroom. Their power is not loud; it is inherent, built on a foundation of knowledge, taste, and an unwavering, elegant resolve.

Short & Punchy

• Oud & Iris: The Earth and The Heavens.

• A dialogue between root and wood.

• Where ancient earth meets celestial powder.

• The King's Contemplation.

• Velvet and Smoke.

Poetic & Evocative

• 1: Oud & Iris is a fragrance of profound duality. It is the meeting of the deep, earthy soul of oud—the sacred wood of the ancient forests—with the ethereal, powdery elegance of iris, the "root of heaven." One is primal and warm; the other is cool and intellectual. Together, they create a scent that is both regal and introspective, like a king in quiet contemplation, his fingers stained with earth yet his mind reaching for the celestial.

• 2: Imagine the scent of an ancient, leather-bound book pressed with dried violets, found in a library of smoked wooden beams. Oud & Iris captures this exact moment. The rugged, smoky character of oud represents the ancient structure, the history. The soft, powdery violet-tinged iris is the delicate, precious knowledge within. It is a fragrance that feels both timeless and deeply personal, a quiet conversation between power and grace.

Oud & Iris Eau de Parfum

• Size: 50 ML

The Fragrance:
Oud & Iris is an elegant and intellectual fragrance built on the iconic contrast between two precious raw materials. It opens with the aromatic intrigue of davana and the dry, luxurious spice of saffron. The heart is where the masterpiece unfolds: a refined, woody oud harmonizes with the velvety, powdery richness of orris butter (iris), creating a timeless and textural accord. This is grounded by the earthy, smoky character of vetiver. The base reveals a soft, warm foundation of creamy sandalwood, glowing amber, and clean white musk, ensuring the scent lingers intimately on the skin.

Key Notes:

• Top: Davana, Saffron

• Heart: Refined Oud, Orris Butter (Iris), Vetiver

• Base: Sandalwood, Amber, Clear Patchouli, White Musk

The Vibe:
Regal, Intellectual, Textural. Oud & Iris is for formal events, artistic pursuits, and moments of quiet confidence. It is a genderless scent for the connoisseur who finds beauty in contrast and complexity.

Oud & Iris is a sophisticated take on a classic pairing, distinguished by its balance and wearability. The oud here is notably polished—woody and smoky without the challenging animalic facets, making it an accessible gateway for those wary of the note. It serves as a perfect, somber canvas for the star of the show: a high-quality orris butter that is rooty, powdery, and elegantly cosmetic. The use of earthy vetiver in the heart is a brilliant stroke, bridging the gap between the earthy iris and the woody oud. The dry-down is a soft, musky amber that feels incredibly luxurious and skin-like. It's a fragrance of subtle contrasts that performs elegantly, with moderate sillage and impressive longevity, making it ideal for occasions that demand understated power."

• Sillage & Longevity: Projects with a sophisticated, intimate aura for the first few hours before settling into a soft, skin-clinging scent that lasts 10+ hours.
