Fendi Theorema is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1998, created by Christine Nagel. Theorema opens with Rose Hip, Lemon, Orange Blossom, and Rosewood, settles into a heart of Spicy, Rose, Ylang-Ylang, and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Guaiac Wood. Fendi's Theorema carries a Favourite verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This discontinued gem is divisive from the outset; some find it a cosy, spicy 'happiness in a bottle', while others are met with an 'overburnt vanilla' or a 'sickly' orange peel. If you can get your hands on a bottle, it seems like a must-try for oriental fans.

About

Theorema opens with a rich, tangy burst of orange and lemon, quickly warmed by a medley of fresh and warm spices like cardamom, nutmeg, and a prominent cinnamon. As it settles, a sweet, creamy amber emerges, entwined with woody notes of sandalwood and guaiac wood, creating a smooth, almost gourmand, yet sophisticated finish.
