The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Hero by ARgENTUM was launched in 2022, crafted by perfumer Delphine Thierry. This composition blends the warmth of Peru Balsam and Oud with the freshness of basil and orange, creating a complex interplay between aromatic brightness and rich, woody depth. The inclusion of clove and cardamom adds an intriguing spicy tension, while oakmoss and patchouli ground the fragrance in earthy, mossy tones.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in light layers — the aromatic top notes are bright but fleeting. The base of Oud and mossy accords takes about an hour to fully bloom, so give it time to develop its depth on your skin.
