Le Gemme Empyr

by Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud

Bvlgari Le Gemme Empyr is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud. Le Gemme Empyr opens with Ginger, and dries down to a base of Labdanum and Sandalwood. Bvlgari's Le Gemme Empyr carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Empyr is a divisive, opinionated take on fresh ginger, with some calling it a masterpiece of modern masculinity and others detecting unsettling marine or metallic notes. Definitely one to sample before you buy.

About

Opens with a sharp, zesty burst of ginger, almost sparkling like ginger ale. This fresh, spicy kick then settles into a clean, woody heart before mellowing into a sensual base of creamy sandalwood and resinous labdanum. There's an underlying modern freshness throughout, hinting at mineralic or even aquatic facets.
