Oro Nero

Oro Nero by the Italian house Bois 1920, released in 2017, is a spicy, woody scent with a citrus opening. Everyone who describes it calls it woody, about two-thirds also find it spicy and citrusy, and a third sweet, ambery or leathery.

The notes are listed together. Bergamot opens bright and juicy. Saffron and cloves bring the spice, the saffron dry and slightly leathery, the cloves warm and medicinal. Ylang-ylang adds a creamy floral note in the middle. The base is cedar and sandalwood with leather, vanilla and amber: dry woods, a smooth leather, and a warm sweetness that rounds everything off.

Oro Nero is a shared fragrance, worn by anyone. The spice, leather and amber place it in autumn and winter and in the evening, with the citrus keeping the opening lively. It suits someone who likes warm, spicy woods with a touch of sweetness rather than fresh or green scents. It is sold in a 50 ml bottle.
