Iris Nazarena is a perfume that delves into the ancient art of perfumery while forging a path toward futuristic expressions. Central to its composition is the iris, particularly the rare Iris Bismarckiana, known for its precious rhizome which takes six years to develop its full aromatic potential. Perfumer Ralf Schwieger crafts a unique narrative by blending this powdery, woody note with incense, creating a deep, mystical allure.
Iris Nazarena introduces elements such as ambrette, rose, and star anise for a touch of floral and spicy freshness. Earthy undertones are provided by juniper berry, patchouli, and vetiver, while clove, oud, and additional incense enrich the composition with smoky, leathery nuances. This scent celebrates the ancient origins of perfumery, embodied in the ritualistic burning of incense, capturing both the essence of the iris and the historical depth of scent creation.

This does not disappoint! Hands down straight chocolate brownie fresh out of the oven. Really creamy and rich but not overpowering. I already have a similar perfume by Jovoy (Gourmand) so it’s not full bottle worthy for me but if you love chocolatey gourmands it’s worth it!
I tried a sample of this and wore it all through a recent holiday. It is the most amazing peachy, vanilla scent . On me the peach top note stays for quite some time before stepping back for that edible buttery vanilla. So glad I got a full bottle. It’s epic.
This is the most stunning gourmand perfume.
At first it reminds me a lot of Fire At Will by Jovoy but then this amazing matcha, sparkling effervescent tea wafts in. It’s only subtle but such a fun vanilla smell.
I think I’ll be getting a full bottle very soon!
Smells delicious. I receive many compliments when wearing this fragrance. I initially started with a 5ml sample but knew quickly that this was worth the cost for full size.
I know longevity is weak at the moment but i love this scent the caramelised pineapple in this is so good so yummy ! But i will let this sit for a while and see if it improves on longevity
But the scent is a 10 out of 10
