Velvet Iris Eau de Parfum by Essential Parfums is a sensual embrace of iris refined into a whisper of luxury. Crafted by master perfumer Dominique Ropion and launched in 2025, it captures elegance with subtle strength. A cold, crispy iris that is not overly powdery with a very distinct green galbanum note. Towards the base, the saffiano leather becomes quite prominent supported by subtle nuances of labdanum and sandalwood.
It opens with a fresh burst of green aromatics—pink pepper, buchu leaf, and turmeric leaf—that lift the veil. The heart unfolds with powdery iris, grounded with galbanum and mastic resin, offering a floral core that feels ethereal yet alive. In the dry-down, creamy sandalwood, warm labdanum, and a suede-leather accord wrapped in Saffiano™ evoke a whispered, intensely feminine trail.
