Opus 1870 Penhaligon`s for men

This is heavenly soft, warm, woods and flowers. Zero sweetness, fruits, or desserts, So my dream scent. I could happily wear this every day. I have a small sample of this, and I hope I can get a bottle soon, as I would love to spray rather than dab. Smells great on me, but it would smell dangerously sexy on a man.

I truly love this one but it wont stay on me

I have tried most of the range from this house and Opus 1870 for me stood out as the best. It opens with a really good peppery ceder wood scent with a beautiful Rose fragrance coming through in the background. As time moves on the Rose comes to the forefront and the woods move into the background.

I find the scent elegant and refined and also restrained in the manner that it is never overwhelming but just compliments the wearer perfectly. A great woody floral that I found worthy of a purchase of a 100ml bottle and one that I am glad is part of my wardrobe.

This is very good and the best thing about wearing this is that you are sure not going bump into someone wearing this the same time as you . lol

In Ascendant today by Oriflame... Such an awesome fragrance!

This is first class stuff! Very sophisticated fragrance. It`s a discreet and "quiet" scent, so it must be sprayed quite heavy to be noticed. It has the typical Penhaligon`s elegance style. It`s a great scent for semi-formal day wear.

Wow, I just received my bottle. I love it.

I find it to be a cross between Dunhill edition and Penhaligons Blemheim Bouquet, both of which I love.

Penhaligon OPUS 1870 opens briefly with a masculine demeanor: somewhat aromatic, with the characteristic coriander of many colognes. Shortly thereafter, however, this morphs into a lovely floral woody fragrance entirely suitable for women. In fact, if it were possible to experience the drydown in isolation from the opening, I would definitely have guessed that this was a creation intended primarily for women.

The floral and the woody elements are perfectly balanced into a subtle, slightly oriental composition. The incense is not at all heavy, serving to complement not dominate the other notes.

Unfortunately, the staying power of this relatively low sillage fragrance is not that good. Otherwise I would have considered adding OPUS 1870 to my wish list. Still, it's quite likeable!
