Our take

Vanille Iris opens with a bright lift of bergamot that carries a distinct thread of anise. The citrus is clean and immediate, while the anise adds a soft spicy edge that feels crisp rather than heavy. This opening is brief but sets a clear tone that prepares the senses for the more distinctive elements waiting underneath.

The heart brings licorice and iris together in a smooth, powdery blend. The licorice reinforces the anise from the top, creating a continuous spicy line through the fragrance, while the iris contributes a violet-leaning floral quality and an earthy depth. The texture here is refined and slightly root-like, giving the composition a grounded feel that avoids becoming too playful.

In the base, vanilla and almond provide a sweet, rounded finish. The vanilla is warm and gourmand, and the almond adds a soft, nutty richness that complements the powdery iris perfectly. The overall accord stays true to its soft spicy, anis, and sweet profile, with the powdery and violet facets remaining present throughout.
