It is the symbol of the city of Florence – in the countryside of whom one of the most important areas for the cultivation of this flower has developed.\u003cbr\u003eThe Fleur de Lys has also been a symbol for the French Kings since the 12th century.\u003cbr\u003eAnd countless times you can find iris in paintings throughout Western History.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIconic material: Oudh\u003cbr\u003eOudh is an iconic ingredient of Eastern culture due to its crucial significance. Derived from an infection of the Aquilaria tree, it’s native to South and South-east Asia, and parts of the Middle East.\u003cbr\u003eUsed for spiritual and religious purposes, it is believed to help elevate the spirit and create a sense of calm and connection to the Divine.\u003cbr\u003eConsidered one of the most precious material in perfumery for its intense and complex aroma, it’s woody with leathery, animalic and smoky facets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRelease Year: \u003cstrong\u003e2023\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConcentration: \u003cstrong\u003ePerfume Extrait\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNose: \u003cstrong\u003eFrancesca Bianchi\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTop notes: Bergamot, Orange, Cassis, Coriander and Lavender.\u003cbr\u003eMiddle notes: Iris Butter, Rose, Angelica and Cinnamon.\u003cbr\u003eBase notes: Agarwood (Oud), Ambergris, Benzoin, Peru Balsam, Castoreum, Sandalwood and Cedarwood.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients: \u003c\/strong\u003eAlcohol Denat.,Parfum, Alpha-isomethyl, Ionone, Limonene, Linalool, Benzyl Benzoate, Geraniol, Benzyl Cinnamate, Benzyl Salicylate, Citronellol, Coumarin, Cinnamal, Eugenol, Citral, Benzyl Alcohol.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Francesca Bianchi","offers":[{"title":"30ml in Manufacturer's bottle","offer_id":43299496591560,"sku":"ZRTLX - FRANCESCA BIANCHI@30_7736599118024","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100ml in Manufacturer's bottle","offer_id":43299496624328,"sku":"ZRTL - FRANCESCA BIANCHI@100_7736599118024","price":315.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1ml Sample","offer_id":43299496657096,"sku":"FRANCESCA BIANCHI@1_7736599118024","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2ml Glass Spray","offer_id":43299496689864,"sku":"FRANCESCA BIANCHI@2_7736599118024","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5ml Glass Spray","offer_id":43299496722632,"sku":"FRANCESCA BIANCHI@5_7736599118024","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/0644\/files\/Encounters-Perfume-Cologne-Francesca-Bianchi-sample-decants-SCENTSPLIT.jpg?v=1744002625","url":"https:\/\/www.scentsplit.live\/products\/francesca-bianchi-encounters-sample-decants","provider":"Scent Split","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
