The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2023, Aquila Absolute by Electimuss is crafted by Julien Rasquinet and embodies the brand's signature blend of ancient Roman inspiration and modern artistry. This woody spicy fragrance opens with raspberry and cardamom, creating a vibrant and fruity top note that contrasts sharply with the warm, spicy heart notes of rose and geranium. The composition deepens into a base of leather, white oud, violet leaf, labdanum, and patchouli, evoking a rich, sensual warmth.

How to wear it

Aquila Absolute is best applied directly to pulse points for a more intimate experience. The raspberry and cardamom top notes are vibrant but fleeting, so allow it to develop on skin for at least an hour before reapplying if needed.
