Pallida is the scent of elegance whispered, not announced—an iris so pristine it feels like moonlight caught in a veil of powder. Inspired by Guerlain’s Iris Pallida Extrait 6, it celebrates the most precious side of iris: not sharp or rooty, but buttery, plush, and quietly radiant, as if the petals were ground into the finest silk and left to glow on warm skin.

From the first breath, Pallida opens with a soft, luminous bloom—an iris “butter” impression that’s creamy and refined, wrapped in an almost weightless powdery halo. There’s a delicate almond touch that adds a faint sweetness—more like marzipan dust than dessert—giving the iris a tender, comforting roundness. A clean, skin-like musk follows close behind, smoothing everything into one seamless caress, like freshly laundered cashmere drifting across your shoulders.

Then comes the most addictive part: white suede. Not heavy leather—never harsh—just a pale, velvety suede note that feels like the inside of a luxury glove, or a soft-lined jewelry box. It gently enfolds the iris, turning the fragrance from ethereal to intimate, from airy to irresistibly close. The iris becomes more sensual here—still refined, but now with a hushed warmth, like a private smile you catch in the mirror.

As Pallida melts into its base, creamy sandalwood rises—smooth, milky, and comforting—reinforcing the softness with an elegant glow that lingers for hours. It’s the kind of sandalwood that doesn’t dominate; it polishes, rounding out the powder, deepening the suede, and making the whole composition feel effortless and expensive. The trail is sophisticated but tender—powdery iris, almond hush, musky skin, and suede creaminess—like a signature written in gold ink.

Pallida is for the ones who love beauty with restraint: impeccably tailored, quietly magnetic, and always a little closer than expected. It’s not a fragrance that enters the room first—it’s the one people remember after you’ve gone.
