More about Amouage Interlude Black Iris
Interlude Black Iris by Amouage opens with the cool clarity of violet leaf, brightened by rosemary and a whisper of bergamot, before unfolding into velvety orris, golden amber, and smooth vanilla. Serene yet compelling, it carries an air of quiet authority and refined grace. It feels like settling into a shadowed library lined with polished woods, where incense curls lazily in the still air. Pierre Negrin composed it as a tranquil, elegant twist on the original Interlude, weaving iris through its rich heart to bring poised calm.
