The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2020 by Electimuss, a British luxury fragrance house known for its bold and lasting creations, Auster is a unisex EDP that marries the warmth of spices with woody depth. Star anise and cloves create a vibrant opening that contrasts beautifully with the earthy richness of patchouli and cedar in the base. This composition feels like it was crafted to evoke a sense of enduring elegance — a fragrance that bridges the modern and the ancient, much like Rome itself.
Auster's warm spices are front and center initially but give way to a deeper woody base over time. Apply one or two sprays to let it develop naturally on your skin without overpowering you. It’s best worn during cooler weather when the spicy warmth feels most comforting.
