Library Collection - Opus I Amouage 2010

It's very good, Opus I! No disco scent, most tangible of the entire Opus range, it makes slight reverence in the direction of classic French chypre, which is amplified by the Amouage sound. The first stage: cardamom, orange, ylang-ylang, roses plus wood. At first glance, you think it's not a "real" Amouage. .....But..... he's got two DNAs, a French one and an Arabic one. The European wins. The second stage: Duet incense and papirus. Some perfumers hear burnt car tyres, glowing tree leaves, bazaars or whole spice shops. For me they are old books, a lot of books...library :) The bottle is super photogenic, my absolute favorite. For Amouage lovers: test it at all costs.
