Violet leaf opens the way to iris with rose, and the finish is sandalwood, musks and cedarwood. A quiet, close perfume like this is judged most fairly on your own skin, across a few wearings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Violet leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Iris, Rose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandalwood, Musks, Cedarwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eViolet leaf, cool and green\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top consists of violet leaves alone, which gives a cool, green, slightly watery line, lighter than any violet flower would be. It is brief and clear, and it leans toward the iris instead of adding sweetness of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIris and rose\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart pairs iris with rose. The iris is powdery and smooth, with a cool, faintly earthy elegance, and the rose rounds it softly without making a bouquet. Texture is the point here: fine, even and dry, with nothing rough in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSandalwood, musks, cedar\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the base, sandalwood is creamy, cedarwood adds a clean dry frame and the musks keep everything close and soft. The idea is a perfume that behaves like a second skin, and the drydown stays smooth and hushed. Whether that quietness pleases you is exactly what the sample shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLight in intensity, so test it on ordinary days: the office, errands, a mild spring or autumn afternoon. Apply it to bare skin and stay with it for a while, since its charm lies in texture rather than in any single note. If it feels too faint, add a little more on the second day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeant for iris lovers and for anyone fond of powdery, refined scents with a low voice. It suits wearers after a refined, skin-close perfume that never announces itself and who enjoy soft, creamy wood behind the flower. Should your taste run to sweet, loud or generously spiced scents, it will probably seem restrained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Ex Nihilo Iris Porcelana as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIris is a love-it-or-leave-it material: powdery and cool on some skins, earthy or even dry on others. With a pyramid this short there is nowhere to hide. Our 10 ml decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us, and Ex Nihilo is not involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy is it called Porcelana?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe house takes its cue from the craft of French porcelain, with its fine, patient handwork.
