The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Royal Orris by Vertus, launched in 2017, is an intricate Floral Woody Musk composition that centers around the powdery and earthy notes of iris. The fragrance opens with a burst of violet and mandarin orange, creating a fresh yet warm contrast against its heart of jasmine and heliotrope. As it settles into a base of musk, vetiver, and woody notes, Royal Orris transforms into an enveloping blend that is both comforting and sophisticated.

How to wear it

Apply Royal Orris in light layers — its powdery iris and musky base notes are designed to build gradually on the skin. The top notes fade within two hours but allow the deeper, more complex accords to emerge for a lasting warmth throughout the day.
