The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2019 by Xerjoff and crafted by perfumer Chris Maurice, Opera is a Woody Floral Musk fragrance that weaves together rich contrasts. The top notes of fruits and Turkish rose introduce a fresh, fruity sweetness that gradually gives way to the heart's ylang-ylang and nutmeg, creating an intriguing tension between floral elegance and spicy warmth. At its core, Opera features leather, amber, and vanilla, offering a warm and enveloping base that anchors the composition with depth and complexity.
Apply Opera to pulse points for a steady release of its complex layers. The fruity top notes are fleeting, so a second application after an hour will help maintain the balance between freshness and warmth.
