More about Sospiro Basso
A refined and complex woody fragrance that opens with the bright, zesty energy of grapefruit. The heart reveals an unusual and captivating blend of carnation, labdanum, and delicate mayflower. The base is a masterfully composed foundation of vetiver, cedar, black pepper, oakmoss, pink pepper, and sandalwood, creating a deep, earthy, and endlessly sophisticated drydown. A hidden gem from the Classica collection.
