Lorenzo Villoresi Alamut is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2006, created by Lorenzo Villoresi. Alamut opens with Floral Notes, Rosewood, Rose, and Jasmine, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Tuberose, Ylang-Ylang, and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Amyris, Musk, Leather, and Powdery. Lorenzo Villoresi's Alamut carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is a seriously polarising scent: some call it a masterpiece, others an 'old-fashioned' mess. It's a grand, rich oriental that leans into vintage glamour, so you'll either adore its dense complexity or find it heavy and dated. Definitely not a blind buy.

Scent Profile

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong sillage and potent base notes, Alamut is too intense for an office setting. However, its rich and complex profile makes it perfect for formal events and romantic evenings where a luxurious and captivating presence is desired.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Alamut opens with a potent, almost boozy blend of powdery rose and jasmine, softened by the creamy hint of osmanthus. As it settles, a lush heart of narcotic tuberose and ylang-ylang emerges, wrapped in the warmth of labdanum. The drydown unveils a rich, balsamic tapestry of amber, sandalwood, and patchouli, underpinned by a soft, earthy leather and a delicate musk, culminating in a deeply sensual and enduring finish.
