Iris & White Musk

Description

Iris & White Musk opens with a fresh, lightly green note of violet. The heart reveals powdery notes of iris, one of the fragrance’s key notes. Lily comes to sustain the floral and lightly woodsy iris note. The subtle trail, earthy with a lightly animalic touch is formed around a white musk that comes and wraps itself around all of the other elements in the fragrance. Perfumer: Christine Nagel

History

Velvety and creamy, Iris & White Musk is a perfume in Jo Malone’s Cologne Intense collection. This series of perfumes was inspired by secular rituals in the Middle East. The collection is the fruit of a collaboration between perfumer Christine Nagel and Jo Malone’s design studio aiming to create bold fragrances that reinterpret popular perfumery ingredients. Each of the compositions has been designed in such a way that it can be worn alone or layered with another fragrance from the collection for an infinitely modifiable “bespoke” effect. Iris & White Musk reveals all the contrasts in orris root, which has been paired with musks to obtain a sweet, woodsy and powdery outcome. The fragrance can be combined with Oud & Bergamot cologne from the same collection. For more information: www.jomalone.com
