PERFUME FAMILY: Floral Gourmand
CLASSIFICATION: Dry, powdery, with a dark chocolate opening
100% Natural. Sustainably sourced. Free from synthetic ingredients. Skin-friendly. Biodegradable.
A playful, indulgent fragrance. At its heart, a rare, powdery Tuscan Orris Root is paired with a flirtatious wink of velvety chocolate Cacao Bean. Seductive Moroccan Neroli and sensual Brazilian Bois de Rose meet the heat of Sichuan Peppercorn and the earthiness of French Oakmoss. A mischievous, enigmatic perfume—full of spirited beauty and unexpected allure.
Orris perfumes are so often predictable, even old school. We chose to play with Orris' earthy notes, twisting it into something darker, deeper, and with a touch of attitude. The powdery softness is still there, but wrapped in a boldly luxurious cocoa coat.

WHAT IS ORRIS?
Orris Root (Iris florentina)
ORIGIN: Tuscany, Italy
EXTRACTION: Resin
Orris Root is the dried rhizome of the beautiful but scentless Florentine Iris flower. Our Tuscan Orris Root is first hand harvested, then peeled, sun-dried and sorted. The root bulbs are odourless when harvested; they must be left to mature for three years in damp underground cellars to enable the Orris roots to oxidise and form the ionones that define the irresistible soft, round powdery scent.
Our Orris root is cultivated completely by hand on a centuries-old family-owned farm in the Tuscan hills.
