Iris occupies a valuable position in the world of perfumery: its prices rise above gold and its singular aroma cannot be experienced for six years after planting. In AEDES DE VENUSTAS IRIS NAZARENA the rare floral root is reborn. It is immersed in conversation with incense, resulting in a mysterious and sensual iris-incense accord that drives this deeply captivating scent. Perfumer Ralf Schwieger has long wanted to offer a contemporary interpretation of iris without referring to its best-known olfactory expressions, in particular Chanel N ° 19, which he calls "the benchmark of iris-based perfumes and an unsurpassed model since since its launch in 1971.

" He also wanted to incorporate transparency into notes that can be seen as somber and ending with something that expressed a beauty that is both mystical and enduring. IRIS NAZARENA takes its name from the rare species Iris Bismarckiana, also known as Iris Nazarena because it grows mainly in the mountains east of Nazareth. The extraordinary beauty of the flower, with its brown or purple spots and delicate bluish-violet veins, seduced Karl Bradl as soon as he discovered it on a postcard. She became the muse of the second AEDES DE VENUSTAS perfume when it was launched in 2013. The flower itself does not give off a scent. Most irises do not. Instead it is the root, or rhizome, that has become revered in perfumery. To turn it into an aromatic material, the flower must grow for three years before being uprooted. It is then left to wither for another three years before developing its signature note, a mix of dust and wood and violet. It is then ground and distilled. Only after this time and a labor-intensive process does the majestic iris resurrect, a journey that reflects the history of the land where the Iris Nazarena grows.

The soft suede petals of the mystical iris muse are drawn in a subtle shade of brown, purple and white. Ambrette diffuses the tender light of dawn over the top notes, rose adds a touch of floral sensuality, and the fresh, vivid green of star anise evokes the stylized stems and leaves of the flower. Resinous berries of juniper, patchouli and vetiver allude to its roots, thrust into the dark earth and rock, while the sacred smoke rising from the altars weaves its mineral and leather-scented tendrils throughout development with cloves, oud and incense .

Olfactory Notes: Iris, Incense, Ambrette, Juniper Berries, Star Anise, Leather, Oud, Cloves, May Rose, Woods, Musk and Vetiver.
