Iris, a beautiful and delicate flower, is a prized ingredient in the world of perfumery, known for its captivating and elegant scent profile. This versatile ingredient adds a unique twist to perfumes, enhancing other notes and creating a complex fragrance profile. Whether adding a powdery, floral touch or enhancing warmer elements, Iris adds a layer of sophistication and mystery to any perfume creation.

The cultivation of Iris plants, particularly in regions like Grasse, France - where SHOLAYIDÉ perfumes are crafted - has been a meticulous art form, ensuring the highest quality of the ingredient for perfumes. One of the most fascinating aspects of Iris is its extraction process. The Iris plant produces a rhizome (or root) and the rhizomes of the Iris plant are carefully harvested and undergo a labor-intensive process to extract the precious essential oil known as Orris Butter. This oil is highly prized for its rarity and depth of aroma and perfumers treasure Orris Butter for its ability to add complexity and refinement to their creations.

In the world of perfumery, Iris contributes a lavish and velvety touch, infusing fragrances with a deep, violet essence. Typically positioned as a middle note, its fragrance blends seamlessly with other floral or spicy notes, resulting in a balanced and intricate scent profile. Iris is a sought-after ingredient in both men's and women's perfumes, enhancing the overall allure of any blend. The enduring appeal of Iris in perfumery lies in its timeless quality, evoking elegance and charm.
