Trimerous

Smooth, creamy, and dreamy. This is comfort and a warm hug in a bottle. This is the powder bomb I have been searching for in my last 2 years of smelling perfume (short time compared some of you seasoned veterans I know), but man is this good. This smells like a memory. A memory of the fall or harvest festival with your friends or significant other. The air is slightly crisp as you walk around in your cozy sweater and light suede jacket with jeans. The wind carrying the smell of the woods and juniper thorns from the forest surrounding the park where the festival is in. The slight smell of sweet nectarine, honey-d and sweet deserts, juxtaposed with the musk of the peoples around your created by the carrot seeds, musk, and ambergris; all of these notes the backbone to the iris. Creating a powdery, creamy, almost foggy haze over the whole scent making it memory like. Like how you remember the major details, but all the little things and details have become romanticized and in the background. The iris goes through multiple different versions of iris throughout the fragrance, from effervescent and bright to entirely thick and syrup-y smooth. The woods and juniper notes become more prominent as it dries down, never overtaking the iris but certainly still noticeable. The date or gathering you had at the festival moving to the final walk in the woods back home, a beautiful and happy end to a beautiful and happy day. Trimerous was such a surprise for me, it's nothing else like Jorum has to offer. Most of Jorum's library of scents are bold, different, and statement makers, which I really enjoy and love to wear. This one is so soft though, it's a fragrance I would wear when I know I look good, but I don't need others to tell me I look good. Decent longevity, 6-7 hours depending on what you're doing. Great silage, I get a good 6 feet or so; but not a in your face 6 feet like most "beast mode" fragrances are, but a wispy and ethereal 6 feet that takes time for people to notice. Fall through mid spring, mostly because the woods might get a bit heavy under the summer heat. Day or Night, but I would prefer daytime myself. Unisex. I hope to make even more memories with this scent. 9/10

there aren’t good enough words to explain just how immensely beautiful this perfume is. i am in love. it is by far the best orris fragrance i’ve yet to come across. infact, i didn't realise how much i loved iris as a note until i smelt this. it’s so earthy, nutty and creamy, not at all powdery. so earthy but in such a gentle way. thick, buttery, silky smooth white suede & orris root swirling around subtly sweet apricot compote. it’s hard to pick apart each of the notes, because they all work together so effortlessly, but they’re all there. carrot seed, angelica, pink pepper, musk.... the blend is insanely smooth. it’s a stand out in comparison to the rest of jorum studios perfumes because they are generally so boldly expressive and complex. trimerous isn’t bold. it doesn’t demand much thought or reflection and does not grab attention. it’s minimalist, effortless and ever so elegantly ethereal. it’s the sort of perfume that makes you smell nice, rather than you just smelling like you’re wearing a nice perfume.. if that makes sense? it is somehow cold, yet simultaneously warm. i feel like it would be a dream to wear in winter especially. like a soft fluffy hug. it just melts right into the skin and envelops you for hours and hours in a blissful blanket of joyful warmth. i’m gonna cherish my samples of it until i get a full bottle. it’s simply divine!!! 🤍🤎💜🧡 jorum studio i love you.

My all-time favorite perfume is Athenaeum, also by Jorum, but when I crave something a little softer but just as complex, I reach for Trimerous. At first I found it a bit rubbery or plasticky, but as I’ve learned more about orris root, I’ve come to appreciate that Euan McCall simply doesn’t sand down the rougher, sharper, weirder edges of this dense, multifaceted material. This is a beautiful, naturalistic love letter to orris. Contrary to my first impression, it’s not at all scratchy or synthetic. It’s chic and elegant without getting too buttoned-up. Like all of Jorum’s scents, it has a nostalgic, lived-in quality, evoking the texture and emotional atmosphere of a very specific time and place. The dusty, powdery notes are a touch melancholic, but they’re balanced with a bright, effervescent sparkle. Versatile and nuanced, it could be worn by anyone, on any occasion, in any season. Moderate sillage and projection, giving a kind of quiet luxury that doesn’t come across as try-hard. It’s what I imagine Louise Glück must have smelled in the air when she wrote The Wild Iris.

Oh god that's just the best iris/orris I ever tried. This is soooo clean, so fresh, official, dry, powdery, violet, lipsticky... Mwah, it just exudes cold, power, powder, water in a way. The iris, backed by some floral and herbal aspects is rounded up with a light, mouthwatering, not sweet nectarine. Amazing. Light, airy, natural, declassing everyone in the iris game. Forget Dior Homme, too sweet. This crushes them all. But. Price to performance ratio. This is way too expensive for the performance it gives you. You'll go through the bottle like hell. So, so sad for me as I don't collect, I use, and when I get bored, I sell and buy another. This, on the value perspective, is not worth it for me. But on the pure heart-led perspective this is worth my kidney. Absolute unisex, everytime, everywhere, office safe. I'm gonna dream about it tonight.

This has very quickly become my favorite presentation of Orris. It's absolutely joyful - bursting with a juiciness that swirls around the creamy central suede-orris accord but doesn't overindulge in sweetness. It has powdery characteristics but also feels somehow dewy and alive, the carrot seed adding a sort of high-definition clarity to the blend that feels effortlessly chic and very modern. There's a spa-like feeling to the whole composition, like you've just sat down in a hotel sauna - not the woodiness of the paneled walls, but the atmosphere: relaxing, gentle, slightly steamy, maybe the slightest hint of chlorine in the air but none of the chemical burn that usually accompanies it. It's a refreshing and clever (the word that sits at the front of my mind with everything Euan McCall does) take on Orris, and incredibly easy to love.

A bit of a strange herbal opening but this is all about the middle phase and drydown. Silvery, sweeted, juicy suede with orris and iris. Smells very luxurious and very very good. Evokes the image of a grey fur stola. I'm a Chanel girl and this has some Chanelesque aspects, must be the iris. Reminds me a lot of Bottega Veneta but without the mossy aspect and more refined. Thankfully there is no perceptible oud. The vanilla in the base is apparent on my skin, which I really like. It never becomes a sweet perfume, though. The quality reminds me of Francesca Bianchi, but I fear perfomance is not as good as hers. This needs to be tested on skin because on my blotter the herbal bitter note remained for a long time and that was my least favorite part. On my skin this was gone after 30 minutes though.

Quirky is beautiful and wonderfully unexpected (even intimate) and Trimerous is the perfect example of those qualities blended into a buttery earthy but somehow salty effervescent orris fragrance that I can't stop spritzing all over. It's unlike anything in my museum-sized collection and I'm transfixed with how the warmth of my skin and hair releases new facets from earthy to romantically airy (and in between and back again) every time I turn my head. Trimerous is between time and space as it captures the evolution and history of harvesting and presenting coveted orris (dare I say, yourself as well) and I'm absolutely smitten by this curious perfume.

Very nice iris perfume, powdery and with make Up and Lipstick aroma. It is very similar to Dior homme intense and to givwnchi gentleman Edp but more natural. However It is also lighter and I think the performance is a bit worse. The fragrance is very Well blended and smells very very good. It is a creamy and buttery iris perfect for everyday use It even ti be worn as an Office fragrance. I think It is totally unisex. Recommended for those Who are looking for a refined versión of Dior homme, or those Who down not like the new 2020 versión of the Dior perfume.

How can orris root in this one be so ‘deep’, (particularly the initial phase)? This is orris and suede done perfectly that it is absolutely divine and tantalising (well, again, in the beginning). The scent is very dense and is almost liquid candle wax-like type of dense. Stunningly creamy and earthy, despite agreeing with a below comment that carrot seeds later overwhelms the scent and behaves as a distraction. Not too much of smokiness at all; styrax and young-aged ambergris take the backseats. Trimerous gets lighter and sweeter as it progresses; it morphs into spiced peach. Last drydown sweet vanilla trace.

It's definitely "about" orris. It has all the powderiness you'd expect, but it is very clearly from the earth, and very root-like. I've never smelled fresh orris root, but I imagine it's very close to this. It's mostly dead-on linear, and it's complex enough where I don't mind at all. I adore wearing it at night--not to go out, but chilling at home or outside somewhere where the breeze is cool and the moon is out. I am curious if anyone wears this as a daily signature scent. I couldn't do so, but there's a mood for which only this will do. (Closest family member to me is Serge Lutens Iris Silver Mist)

The Last Unicorn - (if you know & love this film Trimerous might be for you) it beams just like a mythical immortal creature. Complex, intoxicating, and ethereal. It’s a gorgeous portrait of orris root but also has an enchanted watery quality that bolsters the typical soft starchy orris. Together they sing a true spell. I do think it’s for cooler weather, I fell in love with it in the early spring but could not wear it at all in the summer, the heat muddled up all its beauty.

Juicy Herbacious Incensce🌿 HOW DO THESE NOTES WORK TOGETHER SO WELL?!?!😍😍😍 I would have never believed that orris root and nectarine on the skin would have a cooling scent profile❄️ It is feminine and delicious (without being crazily gourmand) that feels refreshing to wear on a day you feel crispness in the breeze.

As an iris lover, love this stuff. Opens bright and lively, immediately pick up on the orris root. Slightly reminded me of DHI 2020 but they are definitely very different. Nectarine is noticeably juicy and just a hint of sweetness. Perfectly unisex. Good stuff. As always, all just my subjective experience.

A beautiful, complicated nose dive into the orris root. It’s earthy and rich, incense lingering in the background with the “oud” lighting setting the scene. Herby, little seedy, and hauntingly sweet. A broken vintage compact with make up still inside, found underneath the rubble of a pagan ritual.

unique, indeed very buttery and gummy. it didn't feel powdery or musky to me, though. weird at first try, but its soft earthy-gourmand feeling is addictive. there's a faint trace of gasoline or burning rubber that i find common to some of the jorum studio scents, like in rose highland.

A gorgeous, buttery orris and suede scent. Styrax and Oud are turned down in the composition, so much that I cannot detect them. Smooth, well blended from start to the long lasting finish. Not much projection but the scent stayed with me all day.

Pure bliss! Iris perfume but not cold and restrained as the most of the cases - this one is warm, sweet and fluffy. I am impressed.

buttered popcorn jelly bean and champagne iris. gummy and chewy, waxy, then creamy powdery. transforms many times across its wear.

A beautiful sueded orris with a little lift from the nectarine. As Emerson10 said, “A perfect orris”

Trimerous starts with a hazy-pale vegetal musk and then quickly opens out into bright, sweet fruit -- that'll be the "nectarine." A few minutes in, the fruit fades and we get a pillowy fog of cool white iris. There's something herbal in there making it even cooler, almost antiseptic. A little bit of sweetness lingers from the fruit to soften it, but mostly this is hard to take. And then the fruit comes right back! And it's lovely. Juicy, bright, almost floral. Fades delicately into the iris backdrop. It's a very fake peach note, which I usually find jarring, but somehow in this setting it works. Juicy nectarine, snow-white iris butter, chilly herbs. Is this...good? Not exactly, it's bizarre, but it's not exactly bad either. It's not a classical iris fragrance, but peach-and-iris is a solid combination that makes the iris brighter and the fruit more refined. In the drydown the antiseptic herb note is gone, and the pure peaches-and-cream effect is much more pleasant. Unlike Francesca Bianchi Encounters, where the peach smelled really fake and stuck out awkwardly against the smoky iris backdrop, Trimerous's nectarine is genuinely pretty and blends smoothly into the velvety iris.
