Opus V Woods Symphony
Opus V Woods Symphony by Amouage is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with iris and rum, moves into iris, rose and jasmine and dries down to oud and civet. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Rum Boozy, sweet and warm. Adds a grown-up edge to gourmands.
Heart
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Civet Sharp, faecal and intense on its own. In trace amounts it makes florals glow.
