V Canto Lucrethia is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Paolo Terenzi. Lucrethia opens with Pear, settles into a heart of Cacao Pod, Amber, Jasmine, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Patchouli, Honeysuckle, and Vanilla. V Canto's Lucrethia carries an Acquired verdict, a white floral-led wear.

V Canto's Lucrethia is a divisive twist on the familiar, with many calling it a souped-up, smoother version of Black Opium, while others find it lacks depth and performance. Expect a sweet, warm, and comforting scent that plays it safe.

About

Lucrethia opens with a soft, juicy pear, quickly joined by an inviting warmth of cacao and coffee, softened by jasmine. As it settles, a sweet vanilla and benzoin emerge, mingling with earthy patchouli and a touch of creamy honeysuckle for a smooth, comforting base. It's a sweet, floral-fruity gourmand that balances brightness with a dusky depth.
