Flowers by Opus
Opus IX starts quit atypical for an Amouage – fresh and spicy creating the image of a fresh flower with green accents . These first notes gave the impression of a new unknown flower, a hybrid between jasmine and gardenia that finally evolves to jasmine. I could easily recognize some notes from Opus VIII as the jasmine opens bigger and bigger on a spicy background with a lot of black pepper.
In the final act the jasmine disguised in camellia in spite of the innocence and freshness of the beginning shows its real indolic character too. Slowly as the notes from base make their presence Opus IX starts to show its belonging to House of Amouage changing into a rich incense scent with an honey/ animalic accent probably due to the leather and civet. Not so much impressed
