Irida – Eau de Parfum

Namos – a Swiss perfume house from Zug that turns memories into scent and names its fragrances after Greek myth.

Irida is sunny, leathery and warm. Mandarin and pink pepper open like a flash of summer, soft leather, orange blossom and osmanthus meet at the heart, and amber, moss and exotic woods lay down a deep, anchored base.

Irida is at its best in spring and summer – day and evening, on holiday, on summer nights and anywhere that smells of sea and harbour. Unisex and versatile enough for a summer signature.

Irida is named after Iris, goddess of the rainbow and messenger between two worlds – and the scent sits right between lightness and depth. What we love: the leather. It turns a summer fragrance into the memory of one particular summer, sun-warmed and with real weight. It was composed by Zurich perfumer Andreas Wilhelm.
