Iris Absolute. The regal Prima Ballerina. Delicacy in her every movement. The precision is resolute. On stage the lights go up with bergamot. A flood of radiant transparency. A whirl of pink, the energy of peppercorn and amber pirouettes make the whole rounded, arrondi. From the wings, the Iris makes an entrance, reaching high to bow down low, lofty softness and powdery grace, but Orris root must come back to earth. A pas de deux with Himalayan Jasmine. Majestic femininity, the strength of flight. Leather hints at the back stage preparations: the flesh of ballet shoes that fall and rise point-to-point on sandalwood.
Vanilla and benzoin remind us that we are also skin to skin.
It really is ballet bottled the subtle leather notes suggestive of ballet pumps, the soft, musky scent that lingers on hours after you have sprayed. A... beautiful enchanting fragrance, definitely can be carried on through from day to night. Something you will be remembered for...... more

Perfect Review

by Josefin
I first bought this for my sister (brave, I know), and she was so happy with it that I bought one for myself as well. Never gotten so many compliments... for a perfume before.
It's flowery but not too flowery, sweet but not too sweet...and so on. Highly recommend! Buy a sample at least!
It's my first from Penhaligons so I'm eager to try more!... more

Not Just For The Ladies Review
16 September 2014
by Douglas
With a growing collection of fragrances from Penhaligon's, my wife and I stopped by the shop in Covent Garden on our last trip to the U.K. We selected... Iris Prima because the scent was wonderfully feminine on my wife, but there were notes that really appealed to me, so I wore it around for the day. It is not nearly the feminine fragrance I expected and now I wear it more than her. On my skin the the iris note blooms immediately following the initial bergamot, wearing its way down to a soft leather and wood with the tiniest hints of floral jasmine. It is a delightful fragrance and should not be overlooked.... more

Lovely Review
16 September 2014
by Jenny
Iris Prima is beautiful. It has an understated elegance and timelessness to it. It opens very fresh and pretty on me with some powder and soft flowe...rs. The dry down is much more unisex with the vetiver and sandalwood becoming more pronounced. All of the notes blend together to form the leather scent that is subtle and sophiticated, not a harsh leather. A very calming, grounding fragrance. Bravo!... more
