The iris is a real / genuine star in perfumery. We choose the Iris germanica for its particularly powdered size. This variety is world famous thanks to the paintings of Van Gogh and Monet.
It’s a plant with a charming texture that has been cultivated for centuries. Its dried and cured rhizome has a unique fragrance that has long been associated with love. In American popular magic, a little rhizome powder is spread on the sheets and the body to induce feelings of love.
Iris is the name of the Greek goddess of the rainbow. Vaporous, a thousand shades cover her dress and wings. Messenger of Juno, goddess of the air, she waters the sides of the clouds, and glides invisibly on the rainbow, with which she is identified.
