502: Iris Cartagena

502 Iris Cartagena is a harmony of iris, cocoa and papyrus. Far from a steely, austere iris, dark coffee and resinous woods ground this orris-and-rum-filled cocoa confection. An instant staff favorite.

From Bon Parfumeur
A warm and syrupy top with rum and cocoa. A soft powdery heart of iris, sandalwood and vanilla. Vetiver and papyrus give the base a wainscoted touch, enhanced by robust coffee.

Inspiration
"I wanted the Carthaginian night to become a perfume. I wanted to remember forever that summer evening under the stars with my wife. A tribute to Colombia and its scents." -  Ludovic Bonneton
