More about Amouage Opus XVI Timber
Opus XVI Timber by Amouage comes from the Library Collection and is a unisex, monumental exploration of wood in all its forms. The fragrance opens with crisp cypress, cardamom, juniper berries, pink pepper and cocoa. Cardamom and pink pepper give the opening a spiced edge before the resinous heart takes over. It then moves into a resinous heart of lavandin, fir balsam and Omani Hojari frankincense. The base notes build around warm palo santo, vanilla, sandalwood, cedarwood and patchouli, a tribute to the strength and resilience of nature. Amouage Opus XVI Timber suits anyone, men or women, who wants a resinous wood scent with a touch of sweetness from cocoa and vanilla. Fall and winter are its seasons, with the evening and night as its natural hours, although some wearers also try it in the daytime.
