By the editors · 2 min readIris and bergamot open this composition — a combination that balances the cool, rooty-powdery quality of iris against bergamot's clean citrus lift. The iris here likely reads as both floral and slightly earthy, with bergamot keeping things from settling too quickly.
Leather, cedar, and musk form the base — dry, understated, and woody. Leather adds a subtle, smooth quality without turning animalic, cedar gives a pencil-dry woodiness, and musk keeps the finish clean. The transition from iris-citrus to leather-wood is a studied, quiet evolution.
The overall character is cool, dry, and somewhat austere — an iris leather that emphasizes restraint over expressiveness. Suited to cooler seasons and professional or refined occasions.
