Angélique by Papillon at Indigo Perfumery

An olfactory portrait of the delicate iris

 

Angélique captures the delicate essence of the Spring garden, with waves of mimosa, osmanthus and white champac mingling with the powdery beauty of orris (Iris Pallida). 

Virginia cedarwood and subtle notes of frankincense add a delicate freshness and light to its composition.

 

Liz Moores, the Perfumer:

"Inspiration for my perfumes comes to me in many ways, but none more so than from the nature in my own garden. Angélique began as an olfactory portrait of the Iris Pallida; days spent breathing in the delicate scent of the flowers and the honeyed aroma of pollen emerged as nature's own sketch of what Angélique would become. Angélique became a perfume based on my personal impression of the beautiful Iris Pallida, a flower that is as captivating and angelic as nature herself."
