Amouage Opus XIV Royal Tobacco is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Cécile Zarokian. Opus XIV Royal Tobacco opens with Anise, Bergamot, Cardamom, and Frankincense, settles into a heart of Fenugreek, Orange Blossom, Rose, and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Birch Tar, Vanilla, Benzoin, and Myrrh. Amouage's Opus XIV Royal Tobacco carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

This one is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, Opus XIV is a masterpiece. Forget your typical sweet tobaccos - this is a bold, complex, and unashamedly powerful scent for confident individuals who aren't afraid to stand out. It's not for the faint of heart.

About

Opus XIV Royal Tobacco opens with an assertive herbal spiciness, blending frankincense and anise with a hint of basil. This quickly evolves into a heart of rich, wet tobacco entwined with a pronounced licorice and plum sweetness, lifted by subtle florals. The base deepens into an opulent, resinous warmth of vanilla, benzoin, and birch tar, leaving a long-lasting, smoky, and balsamic trail.
