By the editors · 2 min readOpus Kore opens with the pairing that gives it its tension: Sicilian lemon, clean and bright, alongside acai, darker and tartly fruity — a contrast that carries through into the heart. Raspberry and magnolia form the floral core, raspberry bringing brightness and berry-tartness, magnolia contributing a waxy, slightly heady white-floral quality. Violet leaf keeps the heart from becoming sweet, adding a green cut-stem note that references the Persephone subtext: spring florals touched with something darker.
The sandalwood and amber base resolves into warmth without sweetness overload, and musk keeps the skin-connection close. Jerome Epinette's composition hits the contemporary fruity-floral brief with enough distinctiveness to stand apart from the category.
