Amouage The Library Collection Opus II is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2010, created by Michèle Saramito. The Library Collection Opus II opens with Lavender, Pepper, Pink Pepper, and Wormwood, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Cardamom, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Patchouli. Amouage's The Library Collection Opus II carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper grown-up scent, polarising some with its classic barbershop vibe but adored by others for its sophisticated, masculine charm. A complex fougère that blends tradition with a refined touch, though its subtlety won't please those craving a powerhouse beast.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Opens with an invigorating burst of spicy lavender and herbaceous wormwood, a truly aromatic welcome. This sharp introduction mellows into a heart of warm cardamom and cinnamon, delicately underpinned by rose and jasmine. The drydown reveals an elegant base of earthy patchouli, cedar, and a subtle veil of Amouage's signature incense, wrapped in amber and musk for a refined finish.
