Astrum Nova
Astrum Nova by Electimuss is an unisex extrait de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with mango and ambrette seed, moves into blackcurrant and iris and dries down to oud, musk and amberwood. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Mango Thick, sweet and tropical. Creamy rather than sharp.
- Ambrette Seed The only natural musk. Pear-like, warm and slightly boozy.
Heart
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
Dry-down
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Amberwood Dry synthetic warmth, sharper than amber. Everywhere in modern masculines.
