Sospiro Perfumes 2022 EDP
Opera Grande
Sospiro Perfumes Opera Grande is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Christian Provenzano. Opera Grande opens with Fruity Notes and Rose, settles into a heart of Leather, Ylang-Ylang, Nutmeg, and Ambergris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Sospiro Perfumes's Opera Grande carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.
This one flies under the radar for some, but for others, it's 'sex in a bottle'. A sumptuously sweet, creamy rose with a bold personality, Opera Grande is divisive, with some finding it one-dimensional, others hailing it as an intricate masterpiece.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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.
