V Canto 2019 Extrait
Fili
V Canto Fili is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Paolo Terenzi. Fili opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Leather, Cardamom, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Amber, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. It lasts about 6 to 10 hours on skin, fills a room and is best in spring, summer and autumn. V Canto's Fili carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.
This one's a divisive opulent beast - some hail it as a luxurious masterpiece, others question its originality and price. What everyone agrees on is that it’s a confident, complex citrus-woody affair that makes an entrance.What our verdicts mean →

Fili Extrait is a Statement: a deliberate choice for its distinctive character, noticeable presence or particular setting. It lasts a long time on skin with room-filling projection. Full bottles from $166.99, from shops that deliver to you. Prices are before sales tax.
Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the pyramid as published, not a timing claim. Each note's timing follows its listed tier, where it usually sits across many published pyramids (from ScentPrism) and its vapour pressure. A note comes through as the notes usually listed before it fade, judged from how other pyramids order the same pair. The thickness of a ribbon shows the note's share of what is left on the skin, which tracks how strongly it smells, because odour thresholds rise with vapour pressure. The shares come from how prominent wearers vote each note. It is a simple model, not a measurement.
