The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2010 by Ramon Monegal, Impossible Iris is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that marries the creamy richness of iris with powdery and sweet accords. The composition opens with yellow florals and fruity notes, creating an initial burst of brightness before settling into a heart of violet and woody undertones. This interplay between the crisp and the creamy makes Impossible Iris feel both fresh and enveloping, a true reflection of Ramon Monegal's signature elegance.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays on pulse points for a balanced experience — the bright top notes are ephemeral, but the iris and woody base hold their own throughout the day. Ideal for daytime wear when you want a fragrance that evolves quietly.
