Tiziana Terenzi Dubhe Assoluto is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Paolo Terenzi. Dubhe Assoluto opens with Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha, Rose, Geranium, and Saffron, and settles into a heart of Redcurrant Leaf, Balsam, Cedar, and Oud. Tiziana Terenzi's Dubhe Assoluto carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This isn't for the faint of heart or light of wallet; Dubhe Assoluto is a challenging, in-your-face oud experience that demands a mature nose. If you can get past the initial funk, it blossoms into a luxurious, potent aroma that screams Middle Eastern opulence.

About

Explosive from the first spray, Dubhe Assoluto unleashes an intense, sometimes 'fecal' oud, softened slightly by spicy saffron and the floral lift of rose and geranium. As it settles, earthy cypriol and a balsamic sweetness emerge, grounded by cedar and guaiac wood. The dry down is a deeply woody, musky affair, retaining that powerful oud character with hints of vanilla and powdery orris.
