L'Iris de Fath Eau de Parfum by Jacques Fath is a Floral fragrance for women and men. L'Iris de Fath Eau de Parfum was launched in 2023. The nose behind this fragrance is Patrice Revillard. Top notes are Peach, Violet Leaf and Bergamot; middle notes are Iris, Violet, Carnation, Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, Turkish Rose and Lilac; base notes are Bourbon Vetiver, Musk, Benzoin and Tonka Bean. “The first appearance of Jacques Fath's famous Iris Gris was ephemeral: Launched in 1947, the perfume could not overlive the sudden loss of its creator, the grand couturier Jacques Fath, contemporary and friend of Christian Dior. It occurred in 1954 and its overpriced formula did not help its continuation. No matter, the fact remains that this perfume imprinted an unforgettable souvenir in the collective memory... In 2018 the Panouge group - the owner of the brand, chose to relaunch the Extract as close as possible to its original version. The result was a composition elevated as an object of desire for any passionate of authentic Haute Parfumerie. Wild and Sensitive, the EdP (Eau de Parfum) version challenges the aura of the extract with its sensational solfeggio of the noblest notes and its harmony with a perfect fall. The Peach mingles with the impressively vivid and playful unchanged floral bouquet filled with Lilac, Rose, Jasmine and Ylang. However, when worn, the EdP version is iridescent and woodier than the extract, thanks to the talent of the perfumer who had the audacity to rewrite the formula, rather than a lower concentration of ingredients. "As much as for the Extrait we have organized a competition among perfumers., this time Patrice Revillard, who has achieved a beautiful work on the extract, was alone. The challenge was to seduce another audience without disappointing the aficionados of the original"; explains Rania Naim, Artistic Director of Jacques Fath Parfums. At the heart of all attention, the Iris, with its powdery and woody violet flower facets, is produced with Firmenich's Orriscience technology, allowing to optimize the development process of the Irone (flavor ingredient) in the Rhizomes. This know-how makes it possible to produce by steam distillation an Iris "butter"; or Iris Concrete at a level of Irone ranging from 8% up to the absolute at level of Irone at 75%. Thus, it gets as close as possible to the Rhizome’s representation. "It seems natural to me to introduce contemporary ingredients into a formula, even for a historical perfume. After all, musicians perform seventeenth- century music scores with today's instruments without distorting the music in the slightest." explains perfumer Patrice Revillard. Thanks to L’Iris de Fath l’eau de Parfum, this aesthetical trail with its vital vibration is now available for a greater number of women and men.” Head: Violet leaf Absolute, Bergamot, Peach Heart: Iris Butter, Egyptian Jasmine Absolute, Turkish Rose Absolute, Violet, Lilac, Carnation, Ylang-ylang.
