BVLGARI Splendida Iris d’Or 30ml EDP Spray
Splendida Iris d’Or by Bulgari is a sophisticated Floral Woody Musk fragrance designed for women who value an aura of refined luxury. Introduced in 2017 and crafted by nose Sophie Labbe, this perfume harmonizes luminous iris with fresh green brightness, delicate florals, and a warm, sensual woods-and-tonka finish. The result is a versatile scent that transitions effortlessly from daytime polish to evening polish, leaving a polished, confident impression.
Fragrance lovers who appreciate a powdery iris is-not-too-soft experience will find Iris d’Or especially appealing. The scent opens with a crisp, green brightness and citrusy bergamot that feels modern and uplifting. In the heart, iris takes center stage with a luminous, almost silky quality, lightly kissed by mimosa to add a sunny, honeyed facet. The base settles into a soft, enduring foundation of violet leaf, orris, sandalwood, tonka bean, and vetiver, creating a velvety, musky dry-down that lingers on the skin with quiet grace. The overall effect is a refined blend that exudes effortless elegance without shouting for attention.
