A sophisticated gourmand iris root perfume built on an exceptionally high concentration of Bavarian iris germanica. This iris glows with woody and fruity-floral notes — and hints of cocoa and coffee. The effect is enhanced with essential oils of cedar wood, green mandarin and cinnamon absolute, resulting in a luxury treat that feels indulgent and comforting at the same time.
Perfumer: Antoinie Lie
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is the kind of scent that feels most natural at close range, where its powdery iris, spice and cocoa facets can unfold without losing their detail. It suits a composed, tactile setting: a quiet room, tailored clothes, and the sense of someone who prefers texture and depth over loud projection.
How to wear
Best in cool to mild weather, where the iris can stay plush and the spice can read clearly without becoming heavy. Apply sparingly at first; the extrait strength and high iris dose give it strong presence, with a dense opening that settles into a woody, powdery trail and good longevity on skin.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like iris with structure, spice and a vintage edge rather than a sheer cosmetic powder effect. It will appeal to those drawn to gourmand nuances, dry woods, fruity brightness and perfumes that feel polished, dense and a little old-school.

The nose
Antoine Lie is known for bold, textural compositions that push familiar materials into unexpected territory. His work often balances classical structure with a slightly subversive edge, which suits Iris Poulsard’s unusual take on iris: dense, spicy, fruity and materially rich rather than purely powdery. In this fragrance, he frames the brand’s high-dose Bavarian iris around warmth, fruit and dry woods, giving the composition both polish and bite.
Collaborators
Danner & Flemming’s founders shaped the fragrance through their own iris-growing project in Bavaria, supplying the house’s home-grown Iris germanica and defining the terroir-driven concept behind the line. Their agricultural role is central to the perfume’s identity, while Antoine Lie translated that raw material into the finished composition.
Danner & Flemming’s story
Danner & Flemming is a terroir-led niche house built around iris cultivation in Bavaria. Its identity is rooted in growing, harvesting and processing its own raw material, then turning that agricultural specificity into limited, high-concentration perfumes with a distinctly artisanal, millésime character.
Iris Poulsard’s concept
Iris Poulsard is the third release in Danner & Flemming’s iris-focused line and was conceived as a highly concentrated millésime parfum built around the house’s own Bavarian Iris germanica. The name references Poulsard, a rare Jura red grape known for light, fruity-tart wines, echoing the fragrance’s bright, complex, fruity-spicy iris profile.
Extra info
The fragrance is built around an exceptionally high iris dosage, described by the brand as far above standard perfume levels. Its name comes from Poulsard, a rare old red grape from France’s Jura region. It is also the third perfume in Danner & Flemming’s iris trilogy.
