Ouverture in detail
Ouverture is a creation by Xerjoff, a house founded in Turin, entirely devoted to comfort: the house links it to a quiet evening by the fire, book in hand. Volute files it among ambers, for its warm base of vanilla, amber and incense.
The official pyramid opens with green fig leaves, magnolia and orange. The heart gathers Bulgarian rose, cinnamon, Indian jasmine and ylang-ylang. The base pairs amber, cashmere notes, rendered as cashmere wood, sandalwood, vanilla and incense.
Ouverture is an evening scent for autumn and winter; fig leaves give it a green start, before cinnamon and vanilla make it enveloping. Magnolia and ylang-ylang add a creamy floral touch to its comforting character.
Three ambers in our catalogue come close: Epic Woman by Amouage shares cinnamon, jasmine, amber, incense, sandalwood and vanilla; Alexandria II, also by Xerjoff, finds cinnamon, amber, sandalwood and vanilla again; Ambre 114 by Histoires de Parfums pairs rose, sandalwood, amber and vanilla.
