The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2018 by Atelier Cologne, Iris Rebelle is a floral fragrance for both women and men that embodies the essence of rebellion wrapped in powdery sophistication. The composition opens with Calabrian bergamot and black pepper, creating an initial burst of freshness and spiciness that contrasts beautifully against the rich, earthy tones of iris and patchouli. This interplay between bright and dark notes creates a complex profile that is both inviting and intriguing. Iris Rebelle is not just another floral fragrance; it challenges expectations with its bold yet refined character.
Apply Iris Rebelle in a light mist, as the initial fresh spicy notes are quite potent. The earthy base will bloom over time, so layering is unnecessary. This fragrance reads better close to skin than when diffused across a room.
