I tested it on my wrist alongside Opus VII, and by the time I checked, I had completely forgotten about it. It was noticeable, but it didn’t say anything: forgettable.

Haha, it smells just like Gucci Absolute… a mix of leather, varnish, and shoe polish. I absolutely love it because it’s totally different from what I’m used to.

I tried this recent Amouage creation at El Corte Inglés in Alicante and was pleasantly surprised. Experts say the house has lost its identity over the last six years, but this fragrance isn’t like that. Opus XI feels like an extension of Interlude Man, sharing that distinct smoky character. It smells of Moroccan leather and resinous notes, like the leather goods sold at La Esplanada in Alicante. It’s a very specific scent. To truly appreciate it, you need to be familiar with oriental fragrances; otherwise, it might confuse you. I highly recommend it. As a devoted fan of orientals, I can attest that Opus XI is worth getting to know, at least trying it. Perfect for nightwear and autumn/winter. Its longevity, projection, and sillage are decent.
