Infusion d'Iris
Description
The green opening of galbanum and lentisk, which ensures the scent’s freshness, is sweetened with a soupçon of orange blossom and mandarin orange for a cologne effect. The heart of iris soon turns woodsy thanks to notes of cedar and vetiver. A light sensuality emanates from the dry-down, which is both sweet and oriental, thanks to frankincense and benzoin. Designed by: Daniela Andrier, Givaudan.

History
Infusion d'Iris is the second perfume from the Italian label Prada. It is a harmonious scent ‘offering a tonality that is a cross between fresh and firm. Evocative of ‘dreams, of a voyage to Italy, the fresh scent of crumpled linen sheets and naked skin’. A modern and elegant iris, with more of a woodsy feel than a flowery or powdery one, it is somewhat green and oriental. The fragrance’s name was inspired by a long-ago method of steeping iris rhizome for 6 months to extract its sweet fresh notes.
Range
Eau de Parfum spray: 1.7, 3.4 and 6.8 fl. oz.; Eau de parfum bottles: 14 and 25 fl. oz. (They come with a 1-oz. travel-sized bottle equipped with a miniature funnel).
Bottle
The discreetly elegant glass bottle is reminiscent of old-fashioned perfume bottles. It is adorned with a pale- green side label and struck with Prada’s historical logo (the coat-of-arms of the House of Savoy). The packaging bears the same motif, slightly off-center and embossed over a pale-green background.

The opening is fresh green and neroli cologne. It develops to dry woods and dry iris. This is a perfect skin scent to extend a just-showered feeling. I love it. It is not soapy or powdery.......................l'ouverture est cologne verte ed de neroli frais. il se developpe a secher bois et iris secs. Ce est un parfum dde peau ideal pour prolonger un sentiment just une douche. J'aime cela. il ne est pas savonneuse ou poudreux.

L’iris possède différentes facettes. Une tonalité verte tout d’abord, mais aussi un côté floral qui rappelle la violette. La facette la plus connue de l’iris, c’est son caractère poudré. Pour ma part, lors de la création du parfum Equistrius, j’ai utilisé l’iris sous trois formes, dont un extrait retravaillé, qui possède un côté original à la fois chocolaté et foin. L’iris est un ingrédient très cher. Mais c’est aussi une note qui ne plaît pas à tout le monde. Comme la tubéreuse, c’est une matière première qu’il faut donc habiller, ou alors dompter, en atténuant certaines facettes.

Realmente elegante, discreto, uma longevidade estupenda! Não é bombástico nem sensual, entretanto.
