Opus Black

The opening is bright and juicy, pear accord sharpened by green mandarin. The heart turns floral and warm, orange flower petals and jasmine sambac lifted by a thread of cinnamon essence. In the dry-down, vanilla and coffee take the lead, with patchouli and ambrox giving the sweetness depth and a smooth, grounded base.

Its character is graceful but not shy, a vanilla scent with enough coffee and patchouli to feel grown-up. Wear it for an evening out, a special event or to add warmth to an ordinary working day. It pairs well with dark clothes and candlelit dinners, and a couple of sprays are enough.
