Opus V – Woods Symphony

Opus V – Woods Symphony by Amouage is a fragrance for women and men. Opus V – Woods Symphony was launched in 2011. The nose behind this fragrance is Jacques Cavallier Belletrud. Top notes are Orris Root and Rum; middle notes are Orris Root, Rose and Jasmine; base notes are Agarwood (Oud), Dry Wood and Civet. Through a well-balanced “woods symphony”, Opus V evokes how deceptive and transformative knowledge can be. Floral and waxy whiffs of Orris Absolute, buttery, and metallic notes of Orris Concrete pushed by Dry Woods, and heady fumes of Rhum paint a binary world of black and white numbers, glass shards and data humming behind metal desks while the raw animality of Oud and Civet and the faint aroma of wilting Rose and Jasmine evoke the scent of humans, living together with machines. Dry and mineral while carnal and soothing, Opus V is a modern tale of societies fragmented by the way knowledge travels in cyberspace. Top Notes : Orris Absolute, Rhum. Heart Notes : Orris Concrete, Rose, Jasmine. Base Notes : Agarwood, Civet, Dry Wood Accord.
