OPUS 1870
A masterpiece, of course. Classic, without ever being de rigueur. A delicate waft of incense meets invigorating yuzu – a bracing, brilliant fragrance, and not a bit heavy.

Delicious
Opus 1870 has been my go-to fragrance since 2018. Peppery, citrusy, and with a whiff of something delicious and Eastern, it is perfect for daily wear. It makes me smile every morning and invites me to take a secret sniff throughout the day. All i could want in a fragrance.

Back to school?
This is a bit of an odd scent, at first you do get a hint of fruit but the dry down leads you quickly through the incense and dumps you squarely to an entirely cedar wood base. If you want to smell like a 1980s school pencil case then this is the one for you.
