Ligno

by Vanina Muracciole

Jéroboam Ligno is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Vanina Muracciole. Ligno opens with Geranium, Patchouli, Clary Sage, and Pine, settles into a heart of Orris, Castoreum, Patchouli, and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Musk, Ambergris, and Ambroxan. Jéroboam's Ligno carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Ligno is a seriously divisive beast. Some adore its unashamedly masculine, animalic patchouli; others find it too much, bordering on dated men's fragrance. Definitely one to try before you buy.

Its intense sillage and unique animalic-woody character make it unsuitable for office or casual daytime wear. It shines on dates and formal evenings, where its bold and mysterious aura can be appreciated without overwhelming a tight space.

About

Ligno opens with a blast of potent, dry patchouli, cut by sharp pine and herbal clary sage. Geranium adds a green, slightly spicy edge. The heart introduces a rich, leathery castoreum alongside powdery orris and a hint of exotic saffron, deepening the animalic warmth. As it dries, a resinous blend of labdanum, musk, and ambergris creates a dark, sensual base, with ambroxan lending an airy, modern touch to the enduring patchouli.
