Opus IX

product details

STORY

Amouage’s ninth volume in the Library Collection, Opus IX, studies the human nature of
love and sacrifice. Epitomising Amouage’s brand DNA of culture and intellect, Creative Director
Christopher Chong, masterfully composed the fragrance to tell a story of betrayal and
redemption as portrayed by the iconic Maria Callas in the 1958 Lisbon production of the
Opera.Opus IX is a soulful interpretation of the camellia flower, the accord of which was created
especially for the fragrance as the flower has no scent in its natural form. Fused with black
pepper and jasmine, the camellia accord reveals a warming, free-spirited aura in the top notes,
while gaiac wood, beeswax and leather combine in a contradictory heart. A final illusion of the
woody, floral fragrance is created by a euphoric base of grey amber, vetiver and civet.
