The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Iris Silver Mist by Serge Lutens was launched in 1994 and crafted by the renowned perfumer Maurice Roucel. The fragrance is defined by its complex interplay of iris, woody, powdery, earthy, warm spicy, aromatic, violet, and amber notes. This composition creates a sophisticated balance between floral elegance and subtle warmth, making it suitable for both women and men. Iris Silver Mist stands out with its distinct iris note, which is complemented by the depth of woodsy and earthy tones, while powdery and spicy elements add an intriguing contrast.

How to wear it

Apply Iris Silver Mist with two sprays to capture its full complexity. The fragrance develops best close to skin rather than from across a room, so allow it time to meld with your body heat for optimal effect.
