Opera

Opera is a floral with a strong woody side; about half of wearers also find it sweet, and spice and resin are noticed by a few. Al-Jazeera Perfumes of Qatar released it in 2018, Fanny Bal composed it, and it is worn by anyone.

Plum and black currant open it with a dark, juicy fruit, and pink pepper adds a brief, warm sparkle. The heart is a rich pairing of rose and jasmine, with the more intense jasmine sambac adding a heady, slightly animalic depth and geranium sharpening the rose with a green edge. The base is dark and resinous: oud brings a dry, smoky wood, guaiac wood a sweeter, tarry smoke, patchouli earth, and labdanum a warm, ambery resin.

There are no wear reports yet on longevity or sillage. Dark fruit, rose and oud is an evening and cold-weather combination, and the scent suits anyone who likes dramatic, deep florals rather than light ones. It is offered as a bottle without a stated volume.
