Summary
Summary
Gucci Tears of Iris is a soft floral-woody musk from The Alchemist’s Garden collection, centered on iris, sandalwood, angelica, and musk. Iris gives the fragrance its powdery, cool floral character while sandalwood adds creamy depth beneath it. Angelica introduces a green herbal-earthy facet that keeps the composition from becoming purely cosmetic or sweet, and musk smooths the drydown into a close skin-like finish. Created by Alberto Morillas in 2019, Tears of Iris was designed as a sensual interpretation of the iris flower within Gucci’s alchemy-inspired luxury fragrance line. It should suit shoppers who enjoy understated iris scents with woody warmth rather than bright fruit or heavy sweetness. The overall effect is intimate, refined, and quietly meditative.
