V Canto 2015 Extrait

U ££ Acquired

Magnificat

V Canto Magnificat is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Paolo Terenzi. Magnificat opens with Amber, Rose, and Ylang-Ylang, settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Geranium, and Cotton Candy, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Benzoin. V Canto's Magnificat carries an Acquired verdict, an amber-led wear.

This one's a proper head-turner, but definitely not for everyone. Expect a divisive concoction of churchy incense, grown-up cotton candy, and a hefty amber warmth. You'll either adore its mystical depths or find the sweetness jarring.

About

Magnificat opens with a robust embrace of rose and ylang-ylang, quickly intertwined with a rich, burnished amber that dominates the initial impression. As it settles, a unique cotton candy note emerges, not overly saccharine but rather a caramelised sweetness, cushioned by creamy sandalwood and the green, slightly peppery lift of geranium. The dry down is a smoky, balsamic affair, with earthy patchouli, resinous benzoin, and a deep, contemplative incense grounding the composition, all softened by a gentle hum of vanilla and musk. It's a complex journey from sweet floral amber to a sophisticated, smoky oriental.
