Iris Nazarena by Aedes de Venustas is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women and men. Iris Nazarena was launched in 2013. The nose behind this fragrance is Ralf Schwieger. Top notes are Iris, Juniper Berries, Ambrette (Musk Mallow) and Star Anise; middle notes are Leather, Rose, Cloves and Agarwood (Oud); base notes are Incense, Woody Notes, Vetiver and Amber. This second fragrance, this time dressed in somber grey instead of the sumptuous purple of the first one, is mysterious, mystical and sensual, placing the flower of iris at the center of the new creation; but this is not the pale or rooty iris that we know from other fragrances tagged with "iris" in their name or notes list, but a composition that focuses on the the Bismarck variety, also known by the name of Nazarene iris thanks to growing in the mountains east of Nazareth.
