The Library Collection Opus IX

by Nathalie Lorson , Pierre Negrin

Amouage The Library Collection Opus IX is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Nathalie Lorson and Pierre Negrin. The Library Collection Opus IX opens with Jasmine, Pepper, and Camellia, settles into a heart of Leather, Guaiac Wood, and Beeswax, and dries down to a base of Civet, Vetiver, and Ambergris. Amouage's The Library Collection Opus IX carries an Acquired verdict, a animalic-led wear.

Divisive, dramatic, and unapologetically animalic. This isn't for the faint-hearted; it's a bold, indolic jasmine bomb that demands attention and polarises opinions, but those who love it, really love it. A true niche statement.

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent projection and distinct animalic floral character make it unsuitable for typical office wear but perfect for formal events or a commanding presence on a date. Reviews highlight its 'loud' and 'attention-grabbing' nature, restricting its versatility for casual settings.

About

Amouage Opus IX opens with a blast of indolic jasmine and a hint of piquant pepper, swiftly followed by a rich, waxy beeswax and soft leather accord. The guaiac wood adds a smoky facet before settling into a deep, animalic base of civet and ambergris, softened by a touch of vetiver. It's a complex, evolving scent that dances between floral beauty and primal intensity.
