CreamyWhat does Opera Grande smell like?
Opera Grande lasts long and projects strongly. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind. It is chosen most for evenings and nights out, though it also suits leisure time.
It opens with Turkish rose and fruity notes, and its heart holds leather, nutmeg, ambergris and ylang-ylang. The base brings vetiver, Virginia cedar, patchouli, musk and vanilla. The character is sweet, creamy and powdery, with woody and spicy tones balancing that softness. Xerjoff Opera and Maison Alhambra Opus Noir have a close profile.
