By the editors · 2 min readIris by Molinard opens with violet leaf and pink pepper — a clean, slightly spiced opening that has freshness without warmth. The violet leaf contributes a watery, green quality rather than a powdery one.
Iris and rose in the heart are the composition's center of gravity. The iris here leans cold and powdery — the root-carrot facet rather than the sweet floral one — while rose adds warmth to prevent the iris from going purely austere. Cedar and musk in the base give a clean, minimal drydown without drama. The prior data's strong ozonic and iris scores define this as a cool, slightly aquatic iris: fresh and powdery simultaneously. Formal and clean, suited to professional settings and cool weather.
