The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Romance d'Iris by Zara was launched in 2023 and is crafted by perfumer Jo Malone. This fragrance balances powdery and earthy notes with a floral heart centered around iris, creating an elegant yet intimate scent. The opening of bergamot and rice adds a fresh brightness that contrasts beautifully with the rich undertones of violet and heliotrope. As it settles into its base notes of white musk and vetiver, Romance d'Iris becomes a warm, enveloping presence, perfect for those who appreciate nuanced olfactory experiences.

How to wear it

Apply Romance d'Iris lightly to pulse points — it blooms gradually on the skin over time. The powdery and musky base notes develop best when worn close to the body, making it ideal for daytime or early evening.
