Voluptuous and luxurious
In its search for rare emotions, Maison Van Cleef & Arpels has made its Collection Extraordinaire into an olfactory destination for those who love precious ingredients. Here, Bois d’Iris pays homage to one of the most iconic materials.
The secret aromas of Iris pallida mature underground. One must wait at least three years before the flowers rhizome is ready to be extracted. Several more months of patience are then required as the root is transformed into an absolute. After years of work and waiting, the long-desired concrete can finally be harvested. Its rare and delicate fragrance calls to mind make-up, rice powder and dry wood – scents that greatly inspired perfumer Emilie Coppermann.
Plumes of woody aromas
Launched in 2009, this trail mingles the most powdery iris with a selection of sun-tinged woods. As luminous as the Tuscan lands where the flower grows, this fragrance brings together dry vetiver and a matt wood accord with slightly salty swirls of iris. Several plumes of addictive smoky notes then unsettle this minimalistic composition. The sacred ingredients of myrrh, labdanum, incense and ambergris take us back to the beginnings of perfumery. Bois d’Iris mingles gentle powdery notes with smoky incense, radiant Italian sunlight with dusky Oriental nights. This elegant fragrance leaves a delicate impression on the skin.

Since it was founded in 1906, Van Cleef & Arpels has embodied the virtuosity of jewellery savoir-faire.
Fuelled by an endlessly renewed inventive spirit, the Maison's excellence has given rise to timeless creations and exceptional techniques: Mystery Set™, Zip necklaces, Poetic Complications® watches, and carefully selected Pierres de Caractère™ gemstones have all revolutionised the jewellery world.
Since it was founded in 1906, Maison Van Cleef & Arpels has continuously worked on exceptional pieces thanks to the masterful skills of its “Golden Hands” and its poetic, enchanting vision of the world. It is in this narrative world that the Maison’s creativity and imagination produce “L’Extraordinaire”.
The fruit of long years’ work and an intense collaboration with automaton maker François Junod, the project also owes its existence to the savoir-faire of the numerous craftsmen who have taken part in its creation.
It was this idea that gave rise to the Maison's new chapter in fragrance, the “Collection Extraordinaire”, a Fragrance Collection reminiscent of its finest High Jewellery pieces/works: a High Perfumery Collection.
