Iris de Gris in detail
L'Artisan Parfumeur, the Paris house founded in 1976 by Jean Laporte, gathers garden-inspired fragrances in Le Potager. Quentin Bisch signs Iris de Gris there, born, he says, from the gesture of shelling peas; the house files it among both its florals and its fresh scents.
The house publishes three key ingredients, without sorting them into stages. Galbanum, a very green, slightly bitter resin, sets the tone. Powdery, slightly earthy orris softens its brightness. A raw, barely sweet pea accord brings the vegetable-garden touch that makes the fragrance original.
Iris de Gris is worn by day, in spring: at the office, in the garden, at lunch. It is a green, fresh orris, far from muted powdery ones, for lovers of green fragrances. It also suits a spring weekend in the country.
Three florals in our catalogue share one of its materials: Dia Woman by Amouage and Night Scented Jasmine by Floris contain orris; Jasmin et Cigarette by Etat Libre d'Orange contains galbanum.
