by Sospiro Perfumes
Ensemble Sospiro is a well-balanced, woody-tobacco fragrance with a smooth, slightly sweet vanilla and sandalwood base. It opens with a bright, citrusy spark from bergamot and orange, quickly giving way to a soft, spicy woodiness enhanced by pink pepper and tobacco, creating a layered and understated elegance. The drydown reveals a warm, slightly woody vanilla that feels distinctively less cloying than many vanilla-based perfumes, giving it a more refined and nuanced character. It stands out as a quieter, more accessible alternative to heavier tobacco-focused scents like those from Xerjoff or Amouage, with a performance that lingers for many hours, though its projection is moderate and intimate after the initial hour. It's especially well-suited to cooler seasons and is appreciated for its subtle, non-intrusive nature.
