Launched in 2017, Imperial Iris Cologne by Floris is a modern interpretation of the house’s classic elegance, crafted by perfumer Nicola Pozzani. The composition opens with a bright citrus-aromatic blend of bergamot and sea notes, giving way to a heart of rose and lavender that adds an unexpected freshness. The base of oakmoss, sandalwood, amber, and musk grounds the fragrance, providing warmth and depth without overpowering the subtle nuances above.

Application Tips
Apply this fragrance lightly — the top notes are vibrant but fade quickly. The base notes emerge after an hour and provide lasting warmth throughout the day. Ideal for daytime wear when a subtle yet elegant scent is desired.
