Les Eaux Primordiales Iris Palladium EDP
Description
Iris Palladium by Les Eaux Primordiales is a woody, powdery Eau de Parfum for men and women, created by Amelie Bourgeois and Arnaud Poulain (2024 edition). It is a flower rendered in metal: cardamom, lavender and cilantro open with a cool, mineral sharpness, before iris, violet and mugwort settle into something quieter, like petals brushed against a polished surface. Sandalwood, vanilla, amber, benzoin, cedar and guaiac wood close with a warm, resinous hush.
