Iris Ebène

Iris Ebène by Atelier Materi is a spicy citrus scent with iris at its core, plus soft musk, green notes and amber warmth. It was composed by Marie Hugentobler, released in 2019, and is worn by anyone.

Mandarin orange gives a juicy, tangy opening, sharpened by petitgrain's green, slightly bitter edge. Pimento brings a warm, clove-like spice. Iris then adds its cool, earthy, powdery softness, the note the scent is named after. In the base, suede and musk create a velvety, skin-like texture, while sandalwood and Peru balsam supply creamy wood and a gentle, vanilla-like resin.

Bright at first and soft later, it moves easily between daytime and evening, and suits spring and autumn in particular. It fits someone who wants iris without heaviness: refined and textured, but lively thanks to its citrus and spice. It would work equally well at the office and at a relaxed dinner, and suits people who prefer quiet sophistication to obvious sweetness.
