Opus 1144 has captivated the fragrance community with its masterful interpretation of Gothic architecture in olfactory form. Opening with a bold blend of citrus and powdery iris, it evolves into a sophisticated composition that perfectly captures the essence of ancient stone cathedrals and sacred spaces. The community particularly praises its excellent longevity and the way it balances complexity with wearability. While some note that recent formulations feel lighter than the original, the fragrance maintains its artistic integrity with a harmonious progression from bright citrus through resinous heart notes to a warm vanilla base. Though marketed as unisex, it tends to lean slightly feminine, making it a perfect choice for those who appreciate powdery orientals with a historical twist.
