Vespero

Vespero unfolds with a sharp, bitter citrus burst of apple and pink grapefruit, which can feel almost stinging at first but quickly mellows into a woody, leathery core. The fragrance carries a distinctive, mature profile that evolves from a fresh, juicy opening into a deep, smoky, musky leather drydown. It bears resemblance to Aventus in its opening DNA, but soon diverges into a darker, more complex chypre texture influenced by cedar, geranium, and subtle floral notes. The leather isn’t overtly smoky like Tuscan Leather, but it builds with a restrained, elegant depth—a rich blend of patchouli, amber, and musk that lingers well past the wear. Performance is notably strong: it lasts for over 12 hours on most skin types and projects with moderate to strong sillage, with a diffused, nearly intimate aura in the drydown. It leans masculine in character but feels polished and versatile, suitable for evening wear or cool-season days, especially when a robust, confident wear is desired.
