Iris Porcelana in detail
Iris Porcelana is signed by Dalia Izem for Ex Nihilo. The perfumer took French porcelain as her model and built the fragrance around iris pallida, a rare and costly material drawn from the plant's rhizome. Volute files it among florals.
The official pyramid opens with green, fresh violet leaf. The heart gathers powdery orris and rose, in a halo of musk. The base pairs creamy sandalwood, musk and cedarwood, which extend the softness of the orris. The rose stays in the background and leaves orris in the foreground.
Iris Porcelana suits spring and autumn, by day: a discreet, polished scent that also works at the office. Violet leaf gives it a green freshness at first, which then fades away.
Three florals in our catalogue come close: Dia Woman by Amouage shares violet leaf, rose, orris, musk, cedarwood and sandalwood; Elysium Absolue by Roja Parfums finds rose, orris, sandalwood and musk again; Night Scented Jasmine by Floris pairs violet leaf, orris, rose, musk and sandalwood.
