Iso E Super is an abstract synthetic molecule characterized by a cedarwood note with a warm, velvety feel. Iris is a natural extract from the root of several varieties of iris. Geza Schoen: ‘It’s not easy to describe the smell of iris as such, but if you smell a fragrance without it and then with it, you immediately understand what it does. It adds a creamy powder. It brings a physical dimension to a fragrance. I’ve had a long love affair with iris. Every Escentric fragrance has an iris note in it somewhere. For me, iris is a luxury. The iris pallida absolute I used here is one of the most expensive ingredients in perfumery. You can find iris extracts for much less than that. But they don’t have the great, subtle beauty of this absolute. It’s radical to put so much into a fragrance. The trail is fantastic. This is a bomb, but a subtle bomb.’
