By the editors · 2 min readThe Different Company's debut fragrance opens with iris in its purest, most transparent form—powdery but not sweet, rooty rather than floral. Bergamot adds citric brightness without competing for attention. This is iris as structure, not decoration.
As it settles, narcissus weaves through with a green, honeyed quality that deepens the composition without turning it gourmand. The base brings unexpected earthiness: vetiver and cedar anchor the powdery iris in something darker and more grounded, while white musk keeps the finish clean.
The result feels like a study in restraint—iris explored through a woody, almost austere lens rather than the familiar violet-butter sweetness. It suits those who want their florals cerebral, their powder dry, their elegance unadorned. A fragrance that whispers rather than announces, best worn when you have nothing to prove.
