Iris Prima

Iris Prima, a Refined Iris Leather

Penhaligon’s Iris Prima is a refined iris leather scent. Our version keeps that feel, opening with bergamot and pink pepper before a powdery iris and jasmine heart settles over leather, vanilla, and musk.

The Story Behind the Scent

Penhaligon’s built Iris Prima with a ballerina’s grace in mind, all powdery iris and soft leather over warm vanilla. The idea was a refined, elegant poise.

That refined grace is its appeal. The bergamot and pink pepper give it a bright lift, the iris and jasmine make it powdery and floral, and the leather and vanilla give it a warm depth. Our interpretation follows that same elegant path.
