But what really caught our eye was the magnificent centrepiece composed of real iris blossoms that adorned a white crystal tree, and the two little 'garden fairies' who skipped around handing out iris blooms to guests after the unveiling was done.
As for the fragrance itself, women will love the ever-so-subtle scent that doesn't overpower, but is refreshingly floral. Look out for its body care formulations that contain extracts of peony, elderflower and magnolia and vitamin C-rich rosehip and evening primrose to nourish and condition skin. And if you are really into the scent, get a hold of the home fragrances, such as the Home Fragrance Reed Diffuser, Drawer Lining papers, scented poured candles and home fragrance spray.
The IRIS collection is available from all Crabtree & Evelyn stores from October 2010 onwards and prices range from S$25 to S$88.
This is a definite classic.
