Argos Bacio Immortale EDP
Description
Bacio Immortale, the "immortal kiss", is a romantic leather-and-oud with raspberry and violet softening the dark edges. Christian Petrovich created it for Argos in 2019, inspired by the love story of Eros and Psyche. Bergamot, lemon, pepper and raspberry make a bright, juicy opening. The heart is violet and jasmine with supple leather and pink peppercorn. The base brings more leather with oud, smoky birch, musk and vanilla, so it dries down dark but smooth. It is one of the house's best-known scents and wears unisex.
