Sospiro Perfumes Ouverture is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Chris Maurice. Ouverture opens with Orange, Magnolia, and Fig Leaf, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Amber, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Sospiro Perfumes's Ouverture carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a divisive shapeshifter. Some find it a 'dreamy fragrance' that makes you 'leave as a butterfly', others call it a 'synthetic mess'. Definitely try before you buy, it’s not for everyone.

Scent Profile

Composition

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 Casual Formal

With its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, Ouverture is perhaps too much for a formal office environment, though it would suit a more relaxed creative space. It's perfectly suited for dates, casual outings, and formal events, especially in cooler weather, where its warmth and depth can truly shine.

About

Ouverture opens with a bright, zesty orange and green fig leaf, tempered by the creamy floral elegance of magnolia. The heart blossoms with lush rose, exotic ylang-ylang, and warm, spicy cinnamon, adding depth and a touch of gourmand sweetness. As it settles, a rich, woody base of cashmere, sandalwood, and amber emerges, softened by vanilla and a hint of smoky incense, creating a comforting, enveloping dry-down.
