Description
Opus VII – Reckless Leather by Amouage is a distinctive leather fragrance designed for both men and women. Launched in 2013, this scent is the work of renowned perfumers Alberto Morillas and Pierre Negrin. The composition is bold and layered, combining spicy, woody, and smoky notes to create a fragrance that speaks to the daring and the refined alike.
The top notes open with a complex blend of Galbanum, Fenugreek, Cardamom, Pink Pepper, and Nutmeg. These spices and herbs provide an initial burst of freshness, complemented by a subtle heat. As the fragrance develops, the heart reveals the rich, smoky allure of Leather and Agarwood (Oud), interwoven with Ambergris, Patchouli, and Ambroxan. These middle notes lend depth and intensity, giving the scent an earthy, slightly animalic quality. Finally, the base notes ground the fragrance with the earthy warmth of Cypriol Oil (Nagarmotha), Olibanum (Frankincense), Sandalwood, Costus, and Musk. These ingredients impart a lingering, sensual finish that remains present throughout the wear.
Who is it for?
Opus VII – Reckless Leather is a fragrance for those who are confident and unafraid to stand out. It is designed for individuals who appreciate complex, intense perfumes with an element of boldness. While it can be worn by both men and women, it particularly suits those who enjoy strong, smoky, and leather-forward scents. The fragrance appeals to the wearer who seeks to make a statement and is drawn to the artistry of sophisticated, unconventional blends.
When to wear it
Opus VII – Reckless Leather is best suited for evening wear, particularly in cooler months. Its rich, smoky, and spicy character makes it an excellent choice for autumn and winter. The fragrance has a certain depth and intensity that resonates in colder air, making it perfect for occasions that call for sophistication, confidence, and presence. It would be ideal for formal events, intimate gatherings, or even a night out when you want to leave a lasting impression.
