Lucius
Lucius by Fragrance Du Bois is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with bergamot, mandarin and pink pepper, moves into cedarwood and orange blossom and dries down to tonka bean, vetiver and amber. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
Heart
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
Dry-down
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
