Extrait de Parfum
Details on Filippo Sorcinelli LAVS
LAVS (Latin for 'praise') is the first fragrance from Filippo Sorcinelli's UNUM collection, originally created as a room fragrance for the L.A.V.S. atelier (Laboratorio Atelier Vesti Sacre), which produces sacred vestments for the Vatican, including those for Popes Benedict XVI and Francis. This extrait de parfum represents the essence of Catholic liturgical atmosphere.
How does Filippo Sorcinelli LAVS smell?
A masterful blend of liturgical incense and spices, LAVS opens with black pepper and cardamom, leading to a heart of elemi resin and labdanum. The composition evolves into a deep base of opoponax, amber, and oakmoss, creating a sophisticated sacred atmosphere reminiscent of ancient cathedrals and religious ceremonies.

Spicy, smoky scent. Definitely special and not for everyone, but worth a try!

As advertised
Lovely soapy smell, like clean clothes, surprisingly easy on the frankincense. Can see why this was developed for a liturgical clothing store. Would wear without worrying. Unisex, but leaning heavier towards male. Might just work for some women, not for most I'd guess.

From a liturgical-vestment atelier in Mondolfo came a fragrance language joining incense, Gothic form and the resonance of the organ.
