Astra Infinita is Latin for “endless stars”, and this extrait is a celestial blend of brightness and depth. It opens with a citrus supernova: Sicilian lemon, bitter orange and Calabrian bergamot, softened by the golden ripeness of mango and the narcotic bloom of Reunion ylang-ylang.
Then Siberian birch and Indonesian clove meet black pepper and cedarwood, a core that feels both grounded and otherworldly. The base is slow-burning and eternal: Spanish labdanum, Cambodian oud, Mysore sandalwood and Bourbon vanilla. These stars are not distant. They’re drawn to you.

The lush Indonesian rainforest is home to the palm civet, a small mammal that eats coffee beans which, once excreted, are harvested for their malty flavour. Kopi Luwak is inspired by this connoisseur’s beverage, with rich coffee notes mingling with animalic civet. Incense and oud underscore the fermented darkness, with dark amber and aged vanilla adding a sweaty sweetness.

  • woody

Inspired by the innovative use of materials that allowed 18th century clockmakers to construct the first truly accurate marine chronometers, Lignum Vitae combines elements of wood, metal and salt to produce a truly unique, transportive fragrance. Lignum vitae itself is an incredibly dense wood - the only wood which is guaranteed to sink in water - which is indigenous to the Caribbean and the north coast of South America. The brand’s nautical theme is enhanced wonderfully by caramel, a madeleine cake accord and a cool winter lemon note which provide a truly unique gourmand experience akin to smelling warm shortbread, muffins or cupcakes.

In combining unexpected and exotic raw materials, Beaufort London celebrates the innovative spirit which brought to an end the search for lost time, and permitted the safe passage of ships across the world.

The Sniff on Lignum Vitae:

"An innovative gourmand fragrance with a masculine slant, Lignum Vitae by Beaufort London is something rather unexpected. And who doesn’t love a plot twist?"

Love’s first touch is summoned with notes of white champaca and osmanthus absolute, with fruity notes of peach and apricot. The warmth of a first hug is suggested by the glow of vanilla and amber, with tonka bean absolute and Thai oud deepening the experience. A tender whisper of powdery musk remains delicately present throughout.

An olfactory interpretation of a Saharan oasis at twilight.

The base of cedarwood Atlas (Morocco) and wisps of oud smoke leaves a seductive trail that's spellbinding.

The Sniff on this perfume "103 is a lavish, vivacious floral which creates a little bubble of summer around you as soon as you apply it; it’s full of such happy vibes. Wear it if you are craving some summer sunshine, to celebrate that the sun actually has come out for once, or if you just want to feel all girly and carefree....To our minds, the base of 103 is the real triumph. Once all the shouting of those big white florals have died down, and the overly-sweet-but-very-transient phase has passed, what we are left with is a really very enjoyable musk and jasmine petal scent. And, if you like your jasmine on the floral side, then you’ll find the base absolutely delightful – we certainly did."

About Emporio Armani Stronger With You Oud by Giorgio Armani

What makes Emporio Armani Stronger With You Oud different from these similar fragrances?
