Description

Opus XVI begins with tremendous monumentality: a firm, sturdy, boldly vertical expression of woods. However, within moments, the scent begins to reveal a wealth of nuances. The bright, woody facets of Cypress, Cardamom and Lavandin add luminosity. Frankincense, Juniper and Fir Balsam introduce their own uniquely kinetic energy. Finally, Palo Santo, Sandalwood, Cedarwood and Patchouli ground the whole with their uncompromising authoritativeness: symbols of a wisdom that remains firm and is not swayed by the tides of changing fashions.

Perfumers:  Alexis Grugeon

Notes: Cypress, Cardamom, Juniper, Pink Pepper, Cocoa, Lavandin, Fir Balsam, Hojari Frankincense, Palo Santo, Vanilla Bourbon, Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Patchouli

Longevity and layering

Did you know that fragrance longevity can be greatly increased by beginning your routine with clean, moisturized skin? We recommend starting with a shower gel or soap that is either neutrally scented or in the same scent family as your perfume. Then, add a moisturizer and/or body oil and allow it to soak in. Finally, add your fragrance on top. This added moisture barrier will hold the scent molecules for more time, allowing the fragrance to last longer. Think of it as a primer for perfume!
You can also layer scented products (including lotion, soap, body oil, perfume oil, and other alcohol-based perfumes) to add depth, intensity, or a variety of other facets to your final fragrance. We suggest beginning with similar scents (such as two different citrus or vanilla fragrances) and testing those layering combinations, then branching out to more experimental pairings. Feeling stuck? Shared notes, even in very different fragrances, can help bring the final scent together. The sky's the limit - have fun!
