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.

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.
