Amouage The Library Collection Opus I, Opus II, Opus III

Amouage presents a new luxury collection, The Library Collection, which includes three scents - Opus I, Opus II and Opus III. All three fragrances are created as timeless olfactory adventures that pay no attentions to current trends. The collection is not classified by gender - these designs are intended to highlight the quality of the essences and glorify the act of creativity, skill and art.

Christopher Chong, the creative director of Amouage, is credited with creating this collection. The new fragrances represent memories as their very names are associated with the library in which we find many hidden treasures that lead to ongoing research and study. The Library Collection is essentially a poetic homage to the art of living.
