Filippo Sorcinelli Lavs is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. Lavs opens with Jasmine, Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Clove, Coriander, Labdanum, and Elemi, and dries down to a base of Amber, Oakmoss, Rosewood, and Tonka Bean. Filippo Sorcinelli's Lavs carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

This one's a divisive affair, a 'love it or hate it' church incense that screams solemnity and ancient spirituality. Many love its photorealistic, cold incense vibe, while others find it too sharply medicinal or even plasticky.

About

Lavs throws you headfirst into a sacred, smoky abyss. A sharp, almost metallic opening of pepper and cardamom quickly gives way to the heart of the fragrance: frankincense-like elemi and labdanum, creating a cool, resinous church-like atmosphere. The dry down introduces a woody depth with oakmoss and rosewood, softened by a touch of amber and tonka, wrapping the wearer in a mystical, contemplative aura.
